Advice & Tips
This medication did nothing at a lower dose and so the doc told me to take more and suddenly I was wide awake and very hyper for almost two days. It was awful. It also made me feel shaky and gave me dry mouth.

Advice & Tips
This medication made me feel really irritable and angry. Plus when I finally did fall asleep my RLS got intense to the point were my partner could not be in the same bed at me. This medication had no apparent positive effect for me.
