Mirapex for restless leg syndrome is a prescribed remedy, but it's effect wanes over time and can make you drowsy as well. A study by Johns Hopkins revealed a deficiency of Vitamin B6&Iron as the cause of restless legs. Increasing vitamin&iron intake along with minerals like magnesium and potassium, can relieve the problem.A glass of orange juice can sometimes act as a quick remedy for restless legs. This is because orange juice has a large amount of potassium that assists in muscle contraction and releasing energy during metabolism. Your body needs potassium for muscles to work properly. When potassium runs low in your system, you get restless legs.

I've only read these, one was to put bars of soap inside a pillow case with pillow in it and put it down by legs and sleep on and the latest was that someone ate dill pickles just before bedtime and it worked. Good luck on your problem and hope you get results.
