Advice & Tips: It was prescribed to be taken 1 at bedtime to help with RLS. As this worked well I asked my PD nurse if taking one around 3pm might help with controlling daytime tremor which was getting worse from 4pm onwards. I tried this a while ago & have continued as it helps with evening activities.
