Incidence of Drug-related Adverse Events
76 participants

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: after 12 months or at the end of observation

Population: Efficacy set: The patient set included all patients in the safety set with approved indication RLS and had IRLS total score measurement at baseline and at least one post-baseline time point.

International Restless Legs Syndrome rating scale (IRLS): The IRLS rating scale is a selfrating scale used to evaluate the severity of RLS and the patients are requested to answer 10 questions on a scale of 0 to 4. Respective scores (0-4 points) for the 10 questions were added up to calculate the total score on the IRLS. Therefore the total score is 0-40. The lower values represent a better outcome.
