Abstract

Treatment of restless legs syndrome (RLS) must only be considered after a definite positive diagnosis. The RLS phenotype must be characterised precisely, iron deficiency always tested for, and aggravating factors eliminated when possible. Medical treatment is considered for severe or very severe forms and based on dopaminergic agonists, α2δ-1 ligands and/or opioids. First line treatment will be a low-dose monotherapy and the choice of treatment depends on the results of the clinical examination and investigations.
