Hello,
You can try Magnesium supplements and supplements that contain B-complex vitamins to help with your cramps. Also, it might be good to have a check of your electrolytes in the blood, especially Ca+ levels as these may affect the muscles and cause cramps.
I hope this answers your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
