Common Questions and Answers about Flexeril with benadryl

flexeril

Avatar m tn Am i allergic to flexeril, benadryl, and most PM drugs? I have scoliosis, a bulged disc, and very mild arthritis in my back, but the pain can get to be unbearable. my muscles are so tight and knotted that it can leave me in tears (20 year old male). i have been taking flexeril for a year, and i have only used two bottles (60 10mg tablets) however, when i took one two nights ago, i began to shake and get very cold.
Avatar m tn You should be OK on those things but I would not start at the full doses of L-Tyrosine. Build up 500mg at a time and see how you do. You shouldn't need the valium with the Flexeril. Neurontin sometimes has helped with w/ds so that should actually benefit you.
1415174 tn?1453243103 I've tried both Soma and Flexeril (not at same time!) for muscle relaxers (I have fibromyalgia, lupus, severe arthritis). Really the only side effect I've experienced with the Flexeril is that it makes me VERY sleepy, but when I'm hurting and having trouble getting the rest that I need, that actually is a good thing!
232328 tn?1207090071 Hi there. I was prescribed flexeril today for some back pain. Can anyone tell me exactly what it is? If it is addicting? Will it make me sleepy/hyper, etc?
Avatar m tn I just seen that you posted. Sorry so long to get back with you. The flexeril never helped me. It did not even make me sleepy. Why don't you call the posion control hotline and believe it or not they can help you. If not they can give you a number to call. If you don't want to do that call your local er and let them know what's going on for him.
Avatar f tn Muscle relaxers help a lot of people drift off to sleep...benadryl can help, too.
Avatar f tn Before getting pregnant i was taking tramadol and flexeril to take the edge off if my jaw started locking up. Now my ob just has me on the lowest dose of flexeril but it seems to do nothing for it. Just 10 more weeks though i think i can make it if i've gotten this far.
757527 tn?1237893063 My doctor prescribed 5mg Flexeril daily. I took one last night and my pain went from a 8 (on a 10 scale) to about a 3. Has anyone else tried these? Can they be used long term? I'd rather not have to rely on medicine, but if this is helping me, I may have to stick with it. I also get myofascial massages, use warm heat, take Vit B50, and am trying some new supplements for muscles and joints.
Avatar f tn It is worsened, if cooler air from outside the shower comes in contact with my body. The rash usually lasts between 15-45 minutes. Intense itching continues until the outside temperature rises. It effects every aspect of my life. I cannot wear tight clothing. I cannot squat down, cross my legs, or bend over, or the itching is intensified.If I bend at my waist my upper back will start itching. If I cross my legs my legs will itch.

Avatar m tn Valerian root..melatonin are both over the counter (otc) also drugs like benadryl, sominex, nyquil that heep as well...valerian root helped me more than the others..a good dose will have s trong odor to it if it is true valerian root..also phergan/can get it called in easily for a tummy virus as it is not a drug of abuse..anti-histamine with major knock out power..helps nausea and the runny eyes people get someones during wd..
Avatar m tn Hey there! Half way through Day 6 here too. If it wasn't for back stiffness, I'd feel awesome. The one thing that has helped me sleep is Flexeril, it's a non-addictive muscle relaxant usually prescribed to treat muscle spasm (so it helps with RLS too). Valium didn't help me sleep more than 2-3 hours, but with the Flexeril, I've slept 8 hours. I know I saw a couple other posters say it worked for them too.
1653969 tn?1390331661 The instant sleep thing will go away after you establish a routine with it. Wish that I could really help you - but yours isnt a common complaint with flexeril. Do you do any breathing exercises? A couple of minutes of tai chi and meditation and particularly the breathing exercises are very valid therapies.
Avatar m tn m unsure of just how damaging Flexeril is to the kidneys. My only other medicine history has been with Ketoconazole, and that stuff is practically toxic for your liver.
Avatar f tn Most sleep specialists warn that Benadryl can have some adverse effects on REM stage sleep. My neurologist suggested Flexeril or Zanafelx as better choices. I typically reach for 10 mg of Valium.
Avatar f tn I was prescribed this for extreme violent muscle spasms. Dr said non narcotic non addictive. Well my experience with Dr and Percocet i no longer believe in their opinion. So experts can u give me truth. Thanks so much.
476246 tn?1418870914 Can someone please share with me, which benadryl is used for the riba rash/itch while on tx. In Denmark we have two kinds. The one taken 1 x per day and it has a 24 hr effect.
Avatar f tn Alcohol and flexeril are both central nervous system suppressants and consuming alcohol while taking flexeril compounds the drowsiness, confused thinking, respiratory suppression of the muscle relaxant. Flexeril/alcohol combos are frequent causes of accidental overdose. I would avoid the alcohol while taking the flexeril completely. If you already were consuming alcohol, I would skip the flexeril for at least 12 hours or more, depending upon how much alcohol you consumed.
221387 tn?1210933058 You are OK with flexeril ..... it would take a specific test to find that. A basic screen is just looking for drugs that are popularly abused. And they are expensive to do.
Avatar f tn fella 25mg of benadryl. I suggest you start with half that amount.
Avatar f tn Can I take a benadryl for an allergic reaction? Somehow a cucumber got into my salad and my face, lips, and mouth is starting to swell and itch.
Avatar f tn I told my doctor about how I itch at night and he said I should try Benadryl to help but one pill didn't do anything on the box it says I can take two but idk if I should being pregnant pease help and soon itching driving me crazy!!
Avatar n tn I suffer from panic attack and got imsonia my doctor give 50 mg of benadryl to sleep but she use to give 5mg so if safe for me to take 50 mg of benadryl to sleep.
