I’ve been on lorazepam for 15-20 yrs… from 1 mg down to current .5 mg. It’s the only thing that helps my RLS. Recently, I read on this forum that Magnesium glycinate helps with both RLS and sleep, so I tried it. I’m now down to .25 mg, and some nights 0…. Some nights are fitful, but trying to stay on track with this.
I’ve read that people “our age” shouldn’t be on lorazepam due to increased risk of dementia…. That scares me!
Not sure what is worse….. the risk or no sleep…..
