How Long Does It Take Muscle Relaxers

## looking to identify a muscle relaxer with an m on oneside and on the otherside is 751 on a beige or yellow pill ## Mylan Pharmaceuticals list the tablet with the M 751 marking as containing 10mgs of Cyclobenzaprine. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, sedation, and dry mouth. Are there any other questions? ## Cyclobenzaprine is Flexeril, Brand name. It's very old medication and I took it for years because there weren't many choices in the 80's or 90's. Then there was Robaxin. I'm now on Baclofen, 3 20 mg. a day. It helps a little. But honestly theres nothing in my opinion that works like Soma. What's happened is people have abused that Drug too!! So the FDA is coming down on insurance co.to quit paying for ...

small round orange pill.. has number A301 ## This tablet contains 10mgs of Cyclobenzaprine, a generic for Flexeril. This, however, is NOT the strongest muscle relaxant available, Soma or Skelaxin are both much stronger, this one is fairly mild. Common side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness, dizziness and headache. You can read more on this medication here: Is there anything else I can help you with? ## My insurance refuses to copay for Soma, when I asked my De about it he said that a would have a difficult tile finding a Dr who would write a script for Soma as they found that it was addicting.

I was recently stabbed 3 times while I was out for a morning jog. I'm in pain and it's hard for me to relax so I could get better. My doctor is close with my family so he doesn't want to give me the stronger meds I need. I think if he was stabbed he would understand. ## I need some kind of meds, Im In pain I can't sleep and these doctors don't want to prescribe me any thing, because there's a lot of immature people out there dying from taking to many. But I was stabbed 3 times by some people I don't know almost died don't know if they are going to come back for me. I have major problems can anyone help me out please

Can someone recommend me a great muscle relaxer that I could ask my doctor if she would prescribe? Please help thank u ## SOMA will work. ## best bet is soma ## IN RESPONSE TO YOUR QUESTION SOMA WORK'S VERY WELL BUT YOU WILL HAVE TO TAKE SOME TIME TO GET USE TO IT, BUT IT HELP'S ME A LOT.

I need help in getting prescribed muscle relaxers. I dont wanna seem like a DRUG ADDICT... BECAUSE I'M NOT!! But, how do i get my dr to give me what i need???.. I've been in pain for quite some time and my body just isnt the same as it used to be.... I dont want to list all the drugs that i HAVE BEEN taking... but, i just need something (on going) so that, i can get back to my normal life. Any ideas??? Almost anything you do, if you suffer chronic pain, is viewed as drug seeking behavior. Going to multiple doctors in an attempt to get help? Yeah, you're a drug seeker. Asking for a higher dose? Drug seeker. Hoarding? Drug seeker. Questions or complaints about random drug panel policies? Drug seeker. Past history of recreational drug use? You're a drug seeker. ## It honest...

My dad has a pills for muscle relaxers but I'm not sure if someone replaced his pills. I'm really concerned. The pill has LCI and numbers 133. And its in a bottle named BACLOFEN 10 my tab. ## Hi Tina, I don't know if you accidentally forgot the '0' at the end, but the correct imprint for Baclofen 10mg should read "LCI 1330". It's a round white pill with "LCI" sitting above a score line and "1330" is underneath. For verification, this pill carries a National Drug Code of 00527-1330 and is a product of Lannett Co. Inc. Also, Baclofen is a muscle relaxer indicated for use in treating muscle spasms and pain. I hope this helps!

My doctor has prescribed skelaxin for muscle spasms in my hands and feet due to osteoarthritis, it doesn't seem to help very much but I cannot take tizanidine because of serious side effects. (Hallucinations) I currently take Opana ER (10mg 3/day and Percocet 4/day) What other muscle relaxers can be prescribed? ## Hello, Toots! How are you? Two other options would be Carisoprodol (Soma) and Methocarbamol (Robaxin). The FDA lists the typical side effects for them as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache and dry mouth. Is there anything else I can help with? ## My doctor decided on Baclofen. It seems to be working pretty well. Thanks for responding!

Where can I get rid of robaxin #750mg several bottles ## Hello, Trixie! How are you? The FDA disposal instructions say that you should mix the tablets in with some undesirable substance, such as used coffee grounds or dirty kitty litter, place the resulting much into a sealed container, such as a coffee can with lid and then dispose of in the trash. Alternatively, you can also take them to a local pharmacy and they will gladly dispose of them for you. This medication may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache and dry mouth.

My insurance company stopped filling my prescription of Soma because it is not in their health care plan formula. What are the top five that work as well as Soma (Carisoprodol)? ## Then Stan you reach in your pocket and pull out the $4 it costs for Soma. I pay $2. The insurance company doesn't dictate what medicines you can take, only which ones they might not pay for? ## Unfortunately, there is really no top options list that anyone can give you, there are no others that are as strong as Soma, at this time, and which other one might help can vary from person to person. If you can't afford to pay for it out of pocket, as Eddy suggested, you might want to consult your doctor about which one they think would be best for you to try. Personally, I had great results with Skelaxin, wh...

I still have a prescription from 2015. I have been having back pain and cramping. It is now 2017. Is it still safe to take the medication that I have now? ## This medication doesn't become dangerous, once expired, but it can lose efficacy, so it may not work as well as it did, when new. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, and dry mouth. The best thing to do would be to dispose of and see your doctor for a new prescription, if one is necessary. Is there anything else I can help with?

I accidentally took a dantrolene 25mg with my baclofen 10mg ## Hi James, I did some research looking into possible drug interactions between the two, and one report suggests that using the two together may increase the risk of certain side effects ranging from dizziness and drowsiness, to impaired cognitive function. However that seems to be the worst of your worries based off this information alone -(but also not to discount each drug's own individual side effects as well). And if this was just a one time thing then in my experience you should be fine, but on the other hand, if you were to develop symptoms that became too bothersome or severe, I'd still encourage you to contact your doctor immediately and/or poison control to see what steps should be taken to ensure your safety...

I have degenerate disk problems, a knee replacement, as well as arthritis, and I can't get any muscle relaxer that actually works. Why? ## Well when you bones have structure issues the muscles try to hold the cartilage & ligaments that's left in place .... when a muscle reader relaxes the muscles it may relax the muscles but it removes the support of the cartilage & ligaments & transfers the stress points to those connective tissues & being in same proximity it just appears that the relaxers are not working .....imo ## What are you expecting them to do? They are not pain relievers, and will only work to help relax muscle tissue, none of the conditions you've mentioned are muscle based, so a muscle relaxant won't help much with any of them.

Hello, I'm starting the prerequisite withdrawal period before my first suboxone appointment. I would desperately like to know if I can take a xanax or maybe a soma during this period to ease symptoms? Thanks so much for your time... ## Due to the nature of your question, this may be something best answered by your doctor who can make a more informed decision based on your medical records, current health, age, weight, whether or not you're taking any other medications, etc. However based on my research, as long as you're not taking the xanax or soma with suboxone at the same time, you should be fine. Reason being is that there are drug interactions between those medications that may result in increased side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, and difficulty concentrating. ...

I have a chronic pain condition which is Interstitial cystitis (IC) I will not take oxycodone because I was on it for 4 years and it worked great for my pain but I had to keep upping the dosage and became addicted. So now I am on a different pain medication called the Butrans patch and even though it doesn't help as much as I would like it to, it helps with my daily life. So I am able to still do normal daily things. I also have back pain, I am not sure what it is from but the patch does nothing for that either. I am looking for a doctor who would have no problem prescribing me Zanaflex. I tried it once before and it helped tremendously (along with the patch). My other problem is anxiety, my doctor was prescribing me 2mg xanax twice daily. (My mother went into the appointment and ba...

However if you've been experiencing any bothersome or severe symptoms that you sense may be associated with commitment use of nerve pills and muscle relaxers, then I would also suggest talking with your doctor about other viable treatment options for your ailment.

I have severe back and hip pain, my right hip has dropped down almost a half inch causing my back bone to off center. I have tried multiple forms of treatment with no success. I have taken a variety of muscle relaxers, and none of them have worked. I am currently taking 20 mg of baclofen 3 times a day. It's this something I can increase in dosage, or is there a stronger muscle relaxer? I really NEED to relieve the tension in my hip. ## Hello, Megan! How are you? I'm very sorry that you're in pain. You shouldn't take more of the Baclofen than your doctor has prescribed. Taking to much could cause dangerous depression of the central nervous system, which could be fatal, since it can lower heart rate and breath rate. Which other ones have you tried? Soma, which contains the...

i took 4 muscle relaxers too close together by mistake I took two first then in two hours took two more. Should I call poison control? I don't know if I should go to sleep. ## Hello, Christmas! How are you? Did you experience any adverse effects? Anytime that you're worried about such a thing, you should contact poison control or your nearest emergency services. Which muscle relaxant was it? As listed by the FDA, an overdose could result in severe dizziness, drowsiness, vomiting and depression of the central nervous system.
