I get sick on codeine but I'm in severe pain from being hit by a truck. I was struck by the truck while walking in 2014. I need pain medication. I had brain flap surgery in 2015. ## No, Methocarbamol is the name of the active ingredient, it is a muscle relaxant. Its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, and dry mouth, according to NIH reports. Are you on any other medications? And please note that does not mean that you may not discover more medications that cause bad reactions.

I had a bilateral mastectomy a month ago and have been taking methocarbamol for one month every 8 hours. In the last week I'm only taking it at bedtime. The only other meds I'm taking is 4 Advil at the same time. I a suffering from bad night sweats. Could it be caused by the methocarbamol? ## I am also experiencing night sweats while taking methocarbamol. I found that it was listed as one of the less common side effects. ## Hello Natalie, Yes according to the National Institute of Health it is a listed side effect of methocarbamol to have flushing (warmth, tingling feeling, hot flashes) as well as insomnia. With these two combined I can see how it is difficult for you to get adequate sleep. I hope this information helps. Let me know if you have any further questions.

I have very painful leg pain. I took naproxen but it gave me stomach cramps. The dr. also gave me ropinirole HCL 3mg, both do not work.. I am also a diabetic. Please help. Can I take methocarbamol and hydrocodone together to ease this pain? The dr. wants to try different medication. So far nothing works. I was also in the hospital for this pain, x-rays were taken. The only reason they could come up with was very bad arthritis. I think it has something to do with nerve pain. I also have a tingling feeling as well as pain in my legs. Yes I have spoken to the Drs. about this pain. I have spoken to them about that diabetic nerve medicine. But I guess they don't want to try it because I have seizures. Could you tell me something I could try so I could ask them? HELP. ## They can be taken...

what are the side affects of methocarbam ? ## Hello, Jim! How are you? The FDA classifies Methocarbamol as a muscle relaxant and lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache and dry mouth. Has it been prescribed for you? ## Does methocarbam help knee pain? I take it for back spasms,only on occasion. ## Yes, it helps very little around bedtime. I haven't had any bad side effects. I guess it could be that I go to sleep right after taking it.

I have a bugling disc for which I am taking fentanyl 25mcg and hydrocodone, but I am still in a great deal of pain that makes me cry. The pain is in my leg and thigh. I have had one series of 3 shots in my back with no relief. Would robaxin help? The pain is so bad. ## Robaxin contains the active ingredient Methocarbamol, it is a muscle relaxant, so it's really only going to help with pain that's due to muscle spasms, or strains. Has your doctor advised you to use it? ## Does robaxin 750mg have anti-inflammatory properties? Is it equivalent to prednisone 10mg?

I was given these pills today I have R.A and a bad knee. The person who gave them to me said they are sold at swap meets/ flee matram. Maybe try a Mexican store too... ## Hi annon, From what I could gather, Rumoquin NF contains the following active ingredients: 100 mgs of Phenylbutazone - (a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug) + 200 mgs of Methocarbamol - (a muscle relaxant) + 0.75 mgs of Dexamethasone - (a corticosteroid). How has this medication been working for your R.A. and knee pain? I've checked out some reviews for it here on the site and it seems like everyone has good things to say about it. However, because it's only available in Mexico, I have to wonder if there are any similar alternatives for it in the US? ## Yes come up to Saint Paul MN & they sell a whole bun...

My father has suffered from very serious bad pain in his knee. Hes tried numeous medications and none seem to help. We bought Rumoquin today and I hope it works on him. Is there another Medication to avoid while drinking Rumoquin-NF. What are the most serious side effects? thanks in advance ## Rumoquin NF contains Dexamethasone, Phenylbutazone and Methocarbamol. Learn more Dexamethasone details here. Learn more Phenylbutazone details here. Learn more Methocarbamol details here. And since the Dexamethasone is a steroid, the Phenylbutazone is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory and the Methocarbamol is a muscle relaxant, there is the risk of some serious side effects occurring, especially with long term use. Such problems may include: weight gain, fluid retention, compromised immunity, eleva...

can i give my cocker spaniel cyclobenzaprine for muscle spasms? she is having very bad muscle spasms in her abdomen area and her back. ## Hi Kim, From what I could gather, Cyclobenzaprine is not regularly used in veterinary medicine. I'm not sure why that is, but for this reason I'd encourage you to take her to your nearest vet and have her checked out in person, so she can receive the right kind of care or treatment that will nurse her back to health. Other comments I've read, took care to mentioned that Methocarbamol was generally the muscle relaxant of choice for use in dogs and cats. Perhaps you can ask your vet about that option as well. I hope this helps! ## From what I have read, many online sites by LAYMEN States that one should not give cyclobenzaprine (Flexeril) to...
