How is RLS or PLMD treated?
The first step in treating RLS or PLMD is to make the proper diagnosis and determine any underlying causes. When home remedies are not effective, such as regular exercise and leg massages, your healthcare provider can treat RLS with medications. The effectiveness of a particular drug will depend on the severity of the condition, additional medical conditions and other medications that the patient is taking.
