Spasticity and Rls
 

Baclofen doesnt always work on stopping my spasms and jerky legs. Is there anything OTC that anyone has tried that worked for leg spasms or RLS?

No-I take two prescriptions-Ropinerole for RLS & clonazipam for spasms.

BTW I tried baclofen first-didn't help with my spasms at all. I was on zanaflex but it affected my heart rhythm & pulse. So that's why I'm. Now on clonazipam-doesn't work as well as zanaflex but I don't have any issues within either.

I started taking magnesium 500mg a couple weeks ago and also putting magnesium Epsom salts in bath & soaking for 30 minutes per day. My spasms have improved but are not gone. Today I started evening primrose oil to see if that helps more. I have read a ton about both and am hopeful this is a better solution than increasing my Baclofen. Hope you get some relief! :hug:

Spasms
 

I have been taking Zanaflex as well, which helps more than some other meds for me, but I have cyclonic jerks as well so it is difficult to control both. The Zanaflex makes me sleepy but still it's the only thing to help me at all.
