==Causes==
See the potential causal relationship between acidosis and RLS [[Restless legs syndrome pathophysiology#Restless Legs Syndrome and Acidosis|pathophysiology]]. Dehydration may also be a cause of an urge to move one's legs, as some sufferers often find that drinking a glass of water may stop the urges for a short while. Certain medications may worsen RLS in those who already have it, or cause it secondarily.  These include: [[anti-nausea drugs]], certain [[antihistamines]] (often in [[Over-the-counter drug|over-the-counter]] cold medications), [[antidepressants|drugs used to treat depression]] (both older [[tricyclics]] and newer [[SSRI]]s), [[antipsychotic]] drugs, and certain medications used to control [[seizures]].


[[Hypoglycemia]] has also been found to worsen RLS symptoms.<ref name="pmid9613772">{{cite journal |author=Kurlan R |title=Postprandial (reactive) hypoglycemia and restless leg syndrome: related neurologic disorders? |journal=Mov. Disord. |volume=13 |issue=3 |pages=619-20 |year=1998 |pmid=9613772 |doi=10.1002/mds.870130349}}</ref> Opioid detoxification has also recently been associated with provocation of RLS-like symptoms during withdrawal. For those affected, a reduction or elimination in the consumption of simple and refined [[carbohydrates]] or [[starches]] (for example, sugar, white flour, white rice and white potatoes) or some hard [[fats]], such as those found in beef or biscuits, is recommended.
