A Cochrane review on leg cramps in pregnancy showed some potential benefits in trials of magnesium.

Hypothesis: Magnox 520® may reduce the number and severity of NLC; an improvement in the quality of life and quality of sleep may ensue.', 'detailedDescription': 'Ads in the local media and pharmacies will invite individuals afflicted by NLC to participate in the study. Each participating individual will undergo two weeks of eligibility screening followed by 4-week double-blind treatment. The number, severity and duration of NLC will be measured daily as documented in a designated, structured sleep dairy. Quality of life and quality of sleep will be assessed by SF-36 and PSQI questionnaires, respectively, to be completed twice - at enrollment and within one week of the end of the treatment period.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '21 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\nSigned informed consent before any procedure or assessment is done.
