flexeril

Avatar n tn They are similar to soma - not as strong - flexeril is cyclobenzaprine (check spell)and soma is carisprodol.......
Avatar n tn Can anyone direct me to information concerning abuse of the soma patch.
Avatar f tn And can any medications affect the results of an EMG or biopsy. I am currently on Soma Cmpd 350 mg 3x, Flexeril 10 mg 3x, Baclofen 20 mg 4x, Valium 5mg 2x, Amitriptyline 25 mg 1x. And still with no relief.
676302 tn?1237863491 I am wondering what is the name of the muscke relaxer that helps everyone. I have been taking cyclobenzaprine an all it does is makes me sleepy. It doesn't relax my muscles and right now I am really having a problem with the spams. Any help you can give please.
149087 tn?1258453820 The reason I ask is because my fiance tells me that the soma makes me a zombie and he has read that it (soma) is higly addictive. Baclofen is in the same sort of catergory as soma. If anyone can relate or knows about baclofen can you please answer my question or give me some kind of feed back?
372416 tn?1242665752 one of the lesser problematic muscle relaxers available. Didnt work well enough for me....I use flexeril (cyclobenzaprine) now and its both a lttle more effective and hard to have an addiction problem with.
Avatar m tn Muscle relaxants like carisoprodol (Soma), cyclobenzaprine (Flexeril), and even diazepam (Valium), and clonazepam (Klonipin) are not narcotic agents, although the last two are benzodiazepines. Ask your doc about dantrolene (Dantrium).
475300 tn?1312423126 I have had muscle and joint pain for at least 8 - 10 years and my Doc always gave me Soma and upon occasion Vicodan. I preferr not to take Vicodan due to the effects on the liver. Now I take Soma and Foirocet (tylenol again) which usually does not touch the pain. A Rheumatoligist diagnosed my Fibro. I am afraid (as are most) to ask for something else as I take all of my soma ect and need another script when the time is due.
Avatar n tn Can I take Hydrocodone 10/325, Cyclobenzaprine 10mg, and Tramadol 50mg together safely?
Avatar f tn Hi there! Great that you are 10 days off the fentanyl! Congrats! I think that you may experience more intense withdrawal symptoms when you stop the Oxy. By still taking the Oxy, it has kept the symptoms from being too severe. Certainly, it is better to quit one drug at a time. You said that you were going to talk to your doctor about tapering the Oxy. Hopefully, he will support you in that. When do you see him? Try getting outside for a walk every days this will help you with the fatigue.
Avatar f tn Does anyone know of anything(besides muscle relaxers: already on Soma) that will help spasticity? I'm up with my leg crampng, which happens far too often. My rt calf and foot almost always feel like they're on the verge of a Charlie-Horse type leg cramp. They do cramp up terribly a few nights a week. I'm constantly stretching the muscles since they are always sore, which doesnt really help much.
917815 tn?1377498254 I dont post much (read a lot though)...a little over 3 weeks clean (again, LOL)... My right shoulder has been killing me the last 2-3 weeks, and this weekend, seems to have gotten worse; Doc said on Fri, most likely muscular...went through the weekend with Tylenol and today, pain is even worse. I asked him for something "non-narcotic" (he knows about my addiction) and he suggested Cyclobenzaprine (muscle relaxer).
Avatar f tn Hi. I am wanting to quit taking Cyclobenzaprine. I took 20mg a day off and on, like twice a week for 2 years, and then started taking the 20 mg every day for the last 13 years. I plan to wean off, and am wondering what to expect as of withdrawal symptoms. Also, does anyone know of a natural med I could take in it's place?
Avatar n tn Based on the findings, Cyclobenzaprine HCl should be used with caution in subjects with mild hepatic impairment starting with the 5 mg dose and titrating slowly upward. Due to the lack of data in subjects with more severe hepatic insufficiency, the use of Cyclobenzaprine HCl in subjects with moderate to severe impairment is not recommended. http://www.drugs.com/pro/cyclobenzaprine.
Avatar n tn My new doctor prescribed me Cyclobenzaprine for my muscles spams but I take celexa on my regular basis. I remember he told me to be careful in no combining those two. Tonight, I took my celexa around 1am. At 3:55am, I forgot I took the celexa and I took Cyclobenzaprine. Do you think is something I should be worry? I looked online about the drug interaction and they say could be deadly. I am very worry. Any advice of what I can do? Do I gonna be okay?
Avatar f tn I stopped shopping at VS for this very reason and instead am a fan of Soma. The ladies are always so helpful and can provide professional fittings, too. Congrats and good luck!

Avatar m tn hey maybe you can tell me what would be good to take for pain I had ADR surgery 4 years ago, since then they have been switching my meds around and I want to stop taking anything with Tylenol in it. They have me on 30 mg oxycontin, twice daily, 10/325 percocet 6 a day, soma 4 times daily and xanax 2 mg for anxiety. What are my options for the breakthrough pain, that is what I am taking the percocet for and I need to stop with the Tylenol already enough is enough.
Avatar f tn what was ur dose of soma before u quit? soma is usually tapered if high doses r used..and often peeps with a tolerence to soma also have a tolerence to benzos...sleep is important to recovery..phenergan is a safe drug for nausea that also makes peeps sleep..lil pieces like 1/4 can be good in the daytime for anxiety..not addicting and most dr's will call it in for a tummy virus sounds like u r on ur way to getting this done..good for u...
Avatar n tn I was in a car accident March 20th, 2009. I was put on cyclobenzaprine and naproxen for 3 months by my doctor to treat whiplash from mid back to neck. At that time I had a severe reaction to naproxen and developed severe ankle to hip pain. Then my doctor put me on tramadol with cyclobenzaprine. I was still experiencing shots of pain down my arms About a month later, so my doctor had me get a MRI of my neck.
Avatar n tn Can I took two tablets of ic oxycodone 5-325, can I take my ic cyclobenzaprine 5 mg with it?
Avatar m tn I have been seriously involved with my girlfriend for quite some time now. In the past, she took 3 or 4 350mg Soma per day for back pain. Recently, she ran out of Soma and immediately began showing hallmark signs of withdrawal from Soma. (I checked them out on several websites and she was a TEXTBOOK case of this...
