Abstract

This article describes the complex landscape of pediatric Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) and Periodic Limb Movement Disorder (PLMD); prevalent sleep disorders posing challenges to affected children and healthcare providers. It emphasizes a multifaceted treatment approach integrating pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic interventions tailored to individual needs. Iron supplementation emerges as a cornerstone, supported by studies linking low iron levels to sleep disturbances in various pediatric populations. Non-pharmacologic interventions, including lifestyle modifications and dietary adjustments, play a crucial role. The article underscores the importance of personalized management and ongoing research to enhance outcomes and quality of life for children with RLS and PLMD.
