Medical Cannabis for Restless Legs Syndrome

Restless legs syndrome is an unpleasant sensation in the legs and an urge to move them that gets worse at rest, in the evening and at night. The effect can be exhausting - broken sleep, constant fatigue and daytime irritability.

When standard treatment is not enough, some patients ask about medical cannabis as support.
