Restless legs is a condition wherein, while sitting or lying down, itching, tingling or pain occurs in the legs. These symptoms are reduced by motion, which causes the patient to constantly move his legs. Restless Legs Syndrome is not serious, but as one of its effects is insomnia, it does impair one in his normal life. Requip reduces the symptoms and slows down the tendency to move the legs. This allows the patient to sleep better.
