Guest guest Posted January 1, 2005 Report Share Posted January 1, 2005 Pris, This is simply one of the potential side effects to this drug. I have a close friend who takes it to sleep who has fibromyalgia, celiac disease etc., and it probably has been instrumental in her weight gain also.

Guest guest Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 This medication is used for seizures and panic/anxiety related disorder. The street name is Super Valium. It should never be taken for " as needed " as it is highly addictive and a user can experience tolerance and withdrawal. You can find out more at benzo . I have first hand experience for taking it after having Lyme and then suffering general anxiety. It is close to a year of tapering off of it and it has been a hell of a tough road. Please look into this medication. Yes it will help RLS and other neurological disorders but you have to weigh the need over the outcome. Thanks, Salli /Rodney <rod@...> wrote: My mother had been rxed this for RLS, took it for 10 years and only as needed. This is news to me, thought she was taking it for another reason and surely didnt know it was an 'as needed' rx. From researching it I am concerned, should I be? Anyone on it for RLS?
