Is Methocarbamol the same medication as Soma?

@Cindy,
Both Soma (carisoprodol) and Robaxin (methocarbamol) are listed as muscle relaxers. From what I've read, both drugs also reportedly work in the same way - by blocking nerve impulses / pain sensations that are sent to the brain.
However with regards to potency/efficacy I'm not sure how they compare, so you may have to discuss that with your prescribing doctor if it's something you're interested in trying.
Hope this helps!
It is Robaxin, a muscle relaxer. From what I see they are nothing like Soma.
