Prevention
Other than preventing the underlying causes, generally no method of preventing RLS has been established or studied. If RLS is due to specific treatable causes (specific medications or treatable conditions) then treatment of those causes may also remove or reduce RLS. Otherwise medical responses focus on treating the condition, either symptomatically or by treatments which do not target the primary cause of RLS, but instead target lifestyle changes and bodily processes capable of modifying the expression or severity of RLS.
