Common Questions and Answers about Flexeril vicodin

flexeril

Avatar f tn Flexeril is a muscle relaxant. Sweetie, I would ask your doctor about something like that before taking anything. You never know if you will have a reaction to a medication and if it was not prescribed to you and you received it from someone else that person could potentially be in trouble with the law. I do not believe Flexeril is addictive. But, please call your doctor instead. That's just my two cents! WTG for being clean from vicodin for 3 weeks!!! AWESOME!!!
1415174 tn?1453243103 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?
623065 tn?1275503695 Generally with spinal injuries, or neurosurgery, if a patient is looking at back surgery Flexeril (muscle relaxers) and Vicodin (pain killers) are the main medications used to help with the pain. If he has chopped the pills up, then he's most likely NOT abusing them. The reason I say this is because he would be taking several pills WHOLE. He probably took one and realized he was really sensitive to them, so cut them up so he could take a smaller dose so he would not be so tired.
Avatar m tn Well, I have checked out this forum quite a bit. There is a lot of valuable information on here. So here I go again. I have been down the ct withdrawal route before. It is really tough this time since I was taking more mg's a day this time around. About 80-90mg of vicodin. I went about 24hrs and was about to die ( I thought) from the stomach cramps. I did taper down just a little bit over the past couple of days. I was in so much agony today I broke down and aquired 3 more tens.
Avatar f tn prescribed Medrol which I finished taking over a week ago. I have also been taking Vicodin and Flexeril. The Vicodin seems to be constipating me (bonus). The pain intensifies when I wake up and try to get out of bed, but it is not isolated and remains constant throughout the day. I've tried ice packs and heating pads. I haveHave had this for about 6 weeks. Just wondering if anyone can give me advice or a magic cure. I stopped boot camp two weeks ago.
Avatar m tn t sleep because of these constant muscle contractions in my legs and back. Last week the dr. gave me Flexeril, the muscle relaxer to help sleep. It works well but leaves me so groggy the next day. the last few days I have only been taking 1/2 or even 1/3 pill, it takes longer to sleep, but still works. Last night I tried without one and the muscle spasms were worse. Does anyone know if the Flexeril is actually causing these to last longer than they normally would?
1457315 tn?1288459746 Wry neck? That what Dr. said. Medrol dose pack twice. vicodin flexeril. C collar . massages and traction. Chiropractor. Cured! Now........It is starting up again? I don't want to go through all of that again. What is making my neck go WRY? A physical therapist at work said sleeping under a ceiling fan. Any thoughts?
Avatar f tn I have been on vicodin for a nexk injury since February. I started to see a pain doctor but I keep coming up short. It's ruining my life. I have kicked a worse addiction to oxyir several years ago. I have some klonopin 0.5mg, tizanidine and flexeril. I cant keep living this way. I'm not strong enough to taper down. Does anyone have any suggestions on things I could take. Last time I used neurontin but I don't have those this time. I haven't gotten the pain yet but I can sleep.
Avatar m tn Before I went in for my appointment I went to urgent care and they gave me an rx of flexeril and vicodin. Will that show up on my new doctors computer, or does she have to dig for that info?
Avatar f tn Vicodin is a pain reliever with tylenol. The other two are antidepressants,one an SSRI the other an SNRI. To me taking them together make no sense. They do travel different pathways in the brain/body, one holds Norephineprine where it is needed for energy and pain reduction. Serotonin is held where it is needed by both meds which help with depression. Trust your doctor. He must have assessed that your depression is serious and a source of your pain besides the Fibromyalgia.
2730764 tn?1340148833 See if your doctor can write you a prescription for some Requip for restlessness, Neurontin is a great help for anxiety and malaise, some Flexeril or Soma for a few weeks for muscle spasms and maybe some Seroquel low dose for sleep. Clonidine regulates blood pressure, creepy-crawly feeling and will make withdrawals easier. Please don't start taking the opiates again as it will only throw you back into withdrawals once you stop again, or make you relapse.
1185172 tn?1264284610 As my heading says, I was 10 days clean from vicodin - then this past monday I couldn't stand it anymore (pain from fibromyalgia) and took the vic's again. Tues & Wed the same. None yesterday and none today. I'm mad at myself, because the I had gotten thru the horrible rebound pain, I still wasn't sleeping, but did feel a sense of accomplishment. The guilt is overwhelming as is the remorse and humiliation.
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 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.
Avatar m tn I am assuming that your family doctor has x-rays. You need to see a physical therapist and strengthen your inner core. There is nothing the doctors can do to fix the problem. The operation is far from perfect and usually results in more pain. The muscle relaxants do help some people, but can't help people with severe problems. You do need to see a neurologist and get an MRI. They will work with you, even if you don't have insurance.
Avatar f tn Now I have 3 doctors writing me scripts for 60 Vicodin, 30 Vicodin and 60 Hydrocodone 650 tab. I want to quit and not sure cold turkey is safe. I know my neck will still hurt and feel like someone stabbed me but I can't take the lies and manipulation of acquiring enough pain medicine anymore. I am cranky and quick to anger when I don't take at least 6 a day. That and I have gained 35 pounds because I HAVE to have sugar-candy and cereal and icecream.
1142551 tn?1264736930 I'd like an answer to this question, too! Not just my feet, but often my hands, and even my entire body. I'll feel extremely chilled, yet I'll be sweating. And if it helps any with the responses you and I receive to this question, I'm not on any DMD yet. I take Gabapentin/Neurontin, Lisinopril and Atenolol, Imdur (a nitro therapy for my heart), Crestor (for cholesterol), Flexeril, and I take Vicodin when I'm in pain. That's about it.
Avatar f tn Hey his is my first time posting I'm 29 I've been taking vicodin 10mg for almost 2 years off an on but worse in these last few months.
Avatar f tn Today I am going to start my taper off of vicodin which I have taken irresponsibly for over a year. I also take Fioricet, flexeril, and have been perscribed Zoloft which is about week 5. Also going through Klonopin withrawals which has made me shake like crazy. The zoloft increase caused me a week and a half of nausea which has finally subsided. I'm so scared. My two children are counting on me and like many, nobody knows what I'm really going through.
Avatar f tn Stoping xs Vicodin after years. I've needed too. Now had no choice cuz the pain dr is throwing me out thinking I'm not taking them. I was just to many in the beginning I the months. Not sure how I will do with the withdraws. They have put me on a low dose of Fentolyn but I don't think this is doing anything but making me sicker.
1972798 tn?1355549267 Long story short after taking baths, using a heating pad, massaging, whining, taking tylonol and stretching with nothing even touch the pain I ended up in ER for a leg ultrasound to rule out blood clot and blood work to be sure calcium and potassium were ok. All tests came back good and my dr gave me a perscription for flexeril which is a muscle relaxer. I am going to bed and hope when I wake up i am pain free!!!
1563995 tn?1296002197 My fiance still has his vicodin from getting his tooth pulled and i have not an ounce of desire to take one. Im not worried about the mental part at all, i got that down :) I WAS worried about how I was gonna adjust to life without those little yellow devils (norcos) because when you live your life a certain way for so long, i thought itd be the most challenging part, to readjust, but now that i feel better, i feel just like i did when i was on them.
Avatar m tn I got in my car to go to work, was looking for my wallet in my car consol, and there it was, a 5/500 vicodin. I took it. Didnt do a thing for me. Still felt like **** and was so tired from not sleeping the previous 3 days. Physically, i feel fantastic. i forgot what this felt like. Still some trouble sleeping, alot of broken sleep. But nonetheless, there is sleep occuring. Wake in the morning with major cravings, but they pass as i get on with the day.
1303966 tn?1296740010 The ER doctor gave me Vicodin, Tramadol, and nausea meds on top of the flexeril i am prescribed. I took a flexeril to help with the muscle spasms and an hr later took a Vicodin the head shaking stopped. Why am I doing this? Is this normal for chiari?
