Mirtazapine and RLS

Posted by West on May 4, 2009, at 12:44:48

A course of mirtazapine was stopped short recently due to intense restless legs on the first night. I had crawling sensations and had to keep turning my legs round every 20 seconds or so. Taking a lot of clonazepam eventually did the job but it was my worst drug reaction since seroquel (same thing basically).

Since dopamine agonists are used to treat this problem, is this a biological pointer to 'low dopamine' or is this too simplistic a theory?

How common is this?
