Many different ones: Firstly, you doctor should make sure you are not iron deficient. Certain drugs may cause the symptoms, as can withdrawal from opioids and benzos. Pramipexole (mirapex) and ropinerole (requip) are the major drugs, but tranquillizers (benzos like klonopin) and opiates can also help, although they cause physical dependency and arent 1st choice. Remeron (mirtazepine) and Gabitril (tiagabine) have also been used.
