Are Cozaar And Zocor The Right Medication For Restless Leg Syndrome?

I have been experiencing restless leg syndrome after taking my evening med s. COZZAR & ZOCOR . It seams to be getting worse, I am unable to fall asleep no matter how tired I am. After finally taking BENADREL I did sleep but am anxious and irritable and tired today. Could one of these prescriptions be causing this. I m 70 years old and have been taking these med s for a few years now without this problem before.

HI
No, those medications don't cause RLS but a prescription medication called Requip is very effective for it so ask your doctor about that
