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, alpha2delta-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.
