"Horizant has given me a good nights sleep which I haven't experienced in years due to RLS! I know it is gabapentin; basically, but it works differently with only 1 pill taken at dinnertime."

"Horizant has been so effective for my RLS. I have received full relief which I never got on my prior medication. I used to wait for the 24-hour period to lapse so I could get my next dose of the prior RLS med. I would need to walk around and pace until the med worked and did not get full coverage into the morning hours. I take Horizant in 2 doses at night (300 mg at 6:30 pm and 600 mg at 8:30 pm) and this dosage has fully relieved my jittery, bouncy, fidgety legs. I can sleep without the prior symptoms and sleep through the night. It is a blessing."
