My husband has RLS; he used to take Klonipin (sp?), but he had to keep increasing the dose. Then he switched to one of the Parkinson's Disease drugs and became psychotic on it and had to quit. Sinemet, I think. Same thing happened to my father on that drug when he had Parkinson's. Now he takes nothing, my husband, but we can't sleep in the same bed as he could end up kicking me really hard in the night. It has happened before. Even now, he kicked so hard one time he broke a window in our guest bedroom. I think it is actually better now that he is older, or maybe it is just all his other meds, and some help by accident. He is on heart medications, cholesteral medications, Prozac, and vitamins and fish oil and baby aspirin. I think that is it.
