It's a white round pill with u 159 on it and I want to know what kind of medicine is in it ## Hi Sally, Is there any chance that your pill might say U 169 as opposed to U 159? Reason I ask is because the round white pill I found has U 169 on it and reportedly contains 4mgs of Tizanidine hydrochloride; used as a muscle relaxer. For verification, the pill itself is manufactured by Unichem Pharma based out of the US. Please post back if you have any additional information regarding that finding. Hope this helps! ## I have a pill that i found in my house. It has a U 159 on one side and and x on the other side. It have exactly what i just said. Please tell me what kind of pill it is.

I've been experiencing severe pain on the entire left side of my mouth, specifically intensifying around the bottom back tooth on the left side. I'm curious if anyone has tried using Tizanidine for managing tooth pain and would appreciate hearing about your experiences or any advice on this approach? ## Hello, Tissua! Tizanidine is in a class of medications called skeletal muscle relaxants and is used to treat the types of pain associated with strains, sprains and spasms. It works by slowing action in the brain and nervous system to allow the muscles to relax. That said, Tizanidine is not indicated for use in managing pain related to toothaches. Ref: MedlinePlus It would probably be best to see your dentist for an appropriate medication and treatment to help alleviate the root c...

I have been taking Tizanidine 12mg at night and 4 mg in the morning for over 3 months and have been experiencing some alarming abnormal dreams that caused Hallicinations. It seems the Hallicinations occur when I am already tired and then take my normal medication dose at night. Until last night the Hallicinations never caused me to jump out of bed in extreme fright. I typically remember when I have the hallucinations and they always frighten me. The Hallicinations are always thinking someone is in my room and I always demand "who are you?". Last night when the same thing occurred I actually jumped physically out of bed and tried to escape my room past the hallucinated "person" and remember having difficulty getting out the door of my room. I made it out and it seemed at ...

What is the difference between these 2 pills? I never had a problem with the smaller APO TI 4. But the other (U 169) i get extremely itchy and feel like it will never stop. My pharmacy only carries the U 169 now. HELP. ## Hello, PJ! How are you? They are both listed as containing 4mgs of Tizanidine, which is a muscle relaxant. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache and dry mouth. However, the inactive ingredients may be different and there might be one in the U 169 tablet that's manufactured by Unichem that you are allergic to. Have you discussed the problem with your doctor? ## Hi Verwon. Thanks for your reply. I'm going to the pharmacy on Monday. Waiting for Dr's appt. Can't wait to find out what the deal is.

These tablets are manufactured by Apotex Pharmaceuticals and they list the one with the TI-4 marking as containing 4mgs of Tizanidine, which is a muscle relaxant.

Can u us a tizanidine R 180 white oval pill for a toothache. ## Hello, Chawny! How are you? I'm sorry about the toothache. No, this is a muscle relaxant, not an analgesic, so it won't do anything to help with toothache pain. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness and headache. Have you consulted your dentist? If you have an infection, you're going to need an antibiotic, too.

Can tizanidine or hydrocodone cause you to test positive for opi. ## Hydros are a derivative of opiates so yes you will test positive for it. The tizanidine is a non narcotic muscle relaxant so it won't show up as an opiate. ## Tizanidine with 4 slits and 1 side has R180: For people that take this, You will test positive for opiates, Its considered a narcotic, Because There is 1 ingredient That they use in this and its use in opiates like perks. The reason i know I just got prescribed it and it is a muscle relaxer but my doctor told me it is considered a narcotic And he gave me a urine stick to take home. So he knows im taking it. It will show up positive. Just so you people know.

Does Tizanidine have opiates in them or any narcotics? Will it show up in a drug test? ## No Tinazidine is non-narcotic. ## I don't believe it is a narcotic drug. As far as a drug screening goes it really depends on what they look for in the urine/blood sample. They can look for narcotic, illicit, and commonly abused drugs. If it is an employer looking most likely they wouldn't even check for that drug. Drug court may. ## Tizanidine is a muscle relaxant, definitely non-narcotic. ## I have been taking suboxone for 3 months now and I believe it is a wonder drug..I don't believe in going on methadone, so its been a answer to my prayers with help getting off heroin..but it's giving me wicked heart palpitations and making me kinda nervous..anyone else???
