Movement disorders: Restless leg syndrome is believed to be due to a Dopamine disorder. It responds well to Dopamine agonist like ropinirole, pramiprexole and neupro (rotigotine). In case of low iron levels, replacing iron and identifying the cause may also help. A new formulation of long acting Gabapentin (horizant) also provides relief. Carbidopa Levodopa may cause augmentation of RLS in long time users.
