How are you? What I would actually suggest doing is asking your pharmacist. They would be the best person to consult to find out which one would be cheaper for you.

How long does metaxalone 800mgs remain in ur system?? ## Hello, Gigi! How are you? The FDA classifies this as a muscle relaxant, so it isn't something that is checked for on evaluations, if that's what you're asking. Otherwise, it takes anywhere from 21 to 54 hours. The typical side effects to this medication may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache and dry mouth. Is there anything else I can help with?
