Common Questions and Answers about Flexeril and valium interaction

flexeril

1401023 tn?1280781358 t you call you Pharmacist and tell them what happened and ask them about the Flexeril and see what they think about it. Whether or not it JUST caused this by itself OR if it interacted with something else that you are taking. Curious about what you find out.....

733362 tn?1489794936 I have been taking 3/4 of a 10mg Flexerit once a day before bed Pain Management Dr put me on 4-1/2 yrs ago while detoxing from Valium (horrible). I'm sure God brought me here getting off Valium. People here helped me so much like Cricket, AtThebeach and many others. I couldn't have done it without them and our Heavenly Father. Was on Gabapentin (for me is a horrible drug). He offered that again, maybe won't be as bad now, not withdrawing from Valium.
1735730 tn?1348952972 what is the difference between flexaril 10 and zanaflex 4 Is if safe to convert from one to the other?
Avatar f tn Hi there. I can understand your plight well. You are right, certain medications particularly muscle relaxants and antichlinergics, interfere with the results of EMG like baclofen and flexeril or cyclobenzaprine that you are taking. It would be prudent to apprise your neurologist of all the medications you are on, so that the EMG results are appreciated in that light. Muscle biopsy can be taken up after an EMG. Consult your neurologist for his preferences and expertise. Take care.
Avatar n tn No added interaction. Make sure to bring full list of all medications your husband is on to each doctor's appointment as he may see more than one prescriber and make sure to show that list to them each time they consider prescribing new medications. Jennifer R RPH www.drugstore.
Avatar m tn Flexeril and soma are both muscle relaxers....doesn't seem as if teking both each day would be of any benefit...flexeril is the safer of the two as far as addiction....there are some warnings posted as far as anti-depressents and some of the aminos...I was on lexapro (anti-depressent) during detox...nuerontin, I also take flexeril rarely but it can help you sleep..I followed the recipe without difficulty...
751951 tn?1406632863 Hi, PD. It's good scientific method to cut out one thing at a time. If you deleted both, how would you know which one it was? Assuming it was one of them, that is. Maybe you just need a different *type* of med. Baclofen rather than Flexeril, for example. I think you're wise to do what you're doing for now, and see what happens. You can always add the other again, and if horrors occur, you'll know.
527657 tn?1214051850 My doctor has me on 600 mg of gemfibozil once a day before meals and simistation 40 mgs once a day. I have high cholestrol and very high trycliderides. I had a heart attack 10 years ago, Now my question is i read on the net these two meds should not be taken together. Can i get your advice on this please.
5657776 tn?1371799886 He told me not to take the valium I had been prescribed but I could continue the flexeril with the gabapentin as needed. I see him on the first of July and since I am newly diagnosed I have so many questions. I feel a little lost. I have been having so many problems remembering things. Forgetting what I was saying right in the middle of saying it. I was trying to call a friend the other day and I know her number by heart but I dialed half her number and half someone elses.
1168718 tn?1464983535 I have been having so many nights with spasms and jerking of my legs. We have tried many things, like Baclofen, Flexeril, and Gabapentin. Now, we are on 3000 mg. of Gabapentin, and my physiacrist decided to try Valium at 5mg, first week going to 10 mg. the next week, at night time. I was told that in NO WAY can I take the Baclofen, ( warning on bottle), or the flexeril and no grapefruit juice or grapefruit.
1415174 tn?1453243103 m going again tomorrow to perhaps get off of flexeril and maybe get a monitor to take home. Has anyone had this happen to them when on Flexeril? I noticed that the skipped beats got worse with the supplements i'm on too but don't know if these should cause such an event.
1216595 tn?1284933208 It seems as if yur not on them long enough to really give you a chance, and taking you off 40mg of valium and methadone in 2 weeks is far to quick no wonder you relapsed. Ill help in any way i can as i know about these drugs and we are in the same country virtually so i know the way our drs work and all about your meds. You can get in touch anytime m8, id be glad to help.
Avatar f tn of valium, 10 mgs of flexeril, and 30 mgs of buspar, several times a week to escape life. I am a recovering alcoholic and recognize I have relapsed. I want this to stop. Can anyone comment on what withdrawals to expect and how to stop this at home? I am not going to rehab.
Avatar f tn m not at all sure what cobob was trying to say about valium making him reach for klonipan and hopefully he can explain it further so we can understand his point. I hope you get some rest tonight - sleepless is a horrible state. Try the melatonin first- it might be just what you need.
Avatar f tn t say it was awesome and symptom free but much more bearable this last time. WHY you ask?!?! I took flexeril on days 1, 2 and 3. I stopped taking it yesterday because I had to return to work today, but I definitely believe the flexeril helped because it was so much more bearable this time. I'm by no means 100% but yesterday (day 4) I was functional and today I'm a little more functional.
Avatar m tn Going cold turkey starting tomorrow and have everything listed for the Thomas Recipe, and some Clonidine to throw on top of it all. I've been through this before and the sleep issue is what drives me crazy!! Is the Valium supposed to help with sleep, or should I try to get a sleeping aid to help with this? I don't want to throw to much **** into my body, but I also want to get some sleep. I've tried Flexeril and Benedryl in the past with no luck.
Avatar m tn I was on Soma and was switched to valium. I think it's an excellent medication, even though it is habit forming.
Avatar f tn Per the above site. There is no interaction with Valium and Harvoni . You can check drugs on that site to see if there is an interaction. As always, it says contact your doctor because all interactions may not be known.
874521 tn?1424116797 SSRI anti-depressents can cause suicidal ideations as an adverse side effect.. I am not sure if there is a direct interaction with Valium. However, if someone has bipolar as you stated clearly an SSRI alone could easily induce mania and Valium can be personality altering and worsen that effect. These are safe medications to take of course but have the potential of these adverse side effects and an anti-depressent alone, especially an SSRI would worsen bipolar.
Avatar m tn I take an antidepressant at night that helps with sleep and pain, and use Wellbutrin 20mg in the morning to get some get up and go in my life. I also use Valium 10mg 3x day as needed during the day to cope with anxiety and lack of patience due to pain. 2 lidocane patches 10mg on my nueroma site. My background is in Analytical Chemistry, specifically Marine chemistry, and Chemical Safety. I have multiple grad degrees. The last is a MS in public health from Tulane.
Avatar n tn Hi, I have been on Percocet 10/325 along with Neurontin, Flexeril, Valium for about a decade. I was switched to 75 MCG Fentanyl patch 2 weeks ago. Valium was stopped 3 weeks ago. The 1st week I could not sleep at all. Drowsy, though. Shaky, cold. My doctor said it was withdrawal. Now at week 2, I sleep about 2 hours, very shaky, freezing cold, (I never get cold) Absolutely miserable BUT have great pain relief. Must stay in bed.
Avatar f tn I am prescribed quite a few pain meds and benzo's for Chronic pain and anxiety but need advice on getting off Fentanyl Patch ASAP. I am prescribed Fentanyl Patch 100mcg every 36 hrs, Diladid 8mg 2-3 daily, Percocet 7.5 4 daily, Norco 7.5 4 daily, klonopin 1mg 4x daily, Valium 10mg 2-3 daily, Flexeril 10mg 3x daily, Phenergan 25mg 2x daily. I now am down to taking 50mcg Fentanyl every 72 hrs, 1/2 so 4 mg of Diladid if needed 0-2 a day, 1/2 of Percocet so about 3.
751951 tn?1406632863 ve been on Amantadine several weeks and it seems to help a lot with energy and stamina. Last three days I have taken one Flexeril at bedtime. Since.Tuesday, ic, likeI'm voice issue very sporadic "frozen in place" trouble with my tongue. Split second and I was back to normal. Now tonight it's intensified, and almost every sentence. Has an episode. At dinner, Nancy first heard it Before my second course is half gone, I have very shaky jandds and hkunbs.
Avatar n tn I know some people who have been prescribed valium and they had a positive experience with it. I believe that it is a longer acting benzo than other short acting ones that are taken on as needed basis. Also, before you try any supplements, natural remedies, etc, be sure to talk to your doctor about it to avoid problems...keep us posted!
