Does anyone know very much about Flexeril? I just received an call from someone that thinks they may have overdosed on it. He usually does not take it and took up to ten 10mg tablets today and feels somewhat out of it. 100mg in one shot shouldn't do too much should it? He is in No. CA and I'm in So. CA so I can't get to him. Should I be concerned about him not waking up? Apparently he took six of them yesterday and I read the half life is 1-3 days.
Hi again has anyone tried Flexeril (muscle relaxant)? Any bad side effects and did it help pain , I have I guess myofascial pain. Any trouble with withdrawal gettnig off of it?
When I was in Mexico I had an encounter with a stripper in which she rubber her bare genitals on mine. I do not believe there was any penetration. Since then I seem to have a burning sensation that builds up until I urinate. It doesn't get worse as I urinate - if anything it temporarily feels better. I basically feel as I need to go to the bathroom all the time.
Also I had flu like symptoms 5 days after the encounter. Nausea, diarrea. I was sick twice and had diarrea most of the day.
My boyfriend, who is an American citizen, spends a large amount of time in Mexico with family. During this last visit, he became sick and went to the doctor to get checked out. After running the tests, they found that he has tuberculosis. Unfortunately, he and his family don't have the money to pursue treatment for him there in Mexico, and we both know that they won't let him back across the border with active TB.
What on earth is he to do?
I wouldn't drink with flexeril in my system.
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.
Congrats on the 3 weeks. I would take aleve myself. If my back hurts at night I take advil PM .
Hi people, first of all i want to say im from Mexico, Healthy 25 years old male and I am recurring to this place because the advices here in Mexico, both, from government and from doctors, are way to old (you know, wait 6 months for an hiv test, etc, and i just can’t wait no longer),. and also i want to apologies from my bad English, so lest start with my case, ill appreciate any comment.
The first day I took three, I found myself looking at my bottle of pain medication thinking about taking the whole bottle at once! I immediately threw the Flexeril in the trash. Nothing like that ever happened to me before that day, and nothing like that has ever happened since. I have never suffered from depression, so the whole incident freaked me out! I admit I dislike taking medication, and the only medication I routinely take is pain medication.
Hi Tuckamore,
FYI, I went to the doctor yesterday and he said Flexeril is known to cause skipping heart beats and other problems like that and I have to go off of it tonight. So, I went off the Flexeril last night and has some trouble sleeping but took an antihistamine and I seem to be doing ok today. So, far my heartbeat is better. I hope that does the trick. I looked up the side effects of Flexeril and <1% get the arhythimias and so I guess I'm in the 1% as usual.
I been taking flexeril for years because of muscle pain due to Lupus and for the last 2 months have been being treated for severe indigestion as a side effect of the med Verapimil. I was wondering if the flexeril could relax the sphincter muscle that is involved in GERD? Please give me any ideas or info you might have regarding if the flexeril would be contraindicated due to the GERD situation? Thanks, God bless!
