I can NEVER take any OTC sleep aid because it gives me horrible restless legs!! Prescription Ambien is the only sleep aid that doesn't. Benadryl is the same, causing bad RLS!

I think I did, it gives me crazy RLS. It is hit and miss sometimes it will other times it won't. I stopped taking it for allergies because it was so unpredictable.
