AbstractRestless legs syndrome is a sensorimotor neurological condition that affects sleep and daytime functioning. The 4 classes of medication most used for restless legs syndrome include dopaminergic agents, benzodiazepines, opioids, and anticonvulsants such as gabapentin or carbamazepine. Here, we report 3 cases of restless legs syndrome successfully treated with oxcarbazepine, the keto-derivative of carbamazepine.
