I take cyclobenzaprine every night for my back. Mine have always been mustard color with an M on one side and 751 on the other. The last one I had filled and started to take today is peach in color with 1G on one side and 283 on the other. I have not been able to find a picture of them or the # either. ## Hello, Jean! How are you? This tablet is manufactured by InvaGen Pharmaceuticals and they do list them as containing 10mgs of Cyclobenzaprine. That may be why you had trouble finding them, the marking is actually ig 283, with capital letters, so that's not a 1. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache and dry mouth. Is there anything else I can help with? ## i was perscribed 10 mg of cyclobenzaprine, it wasnt working well so,i have ne...

I would like to know what the expected shelf life is for a Cyclobenzaprine 10 mg tablet that's a tan pill with M on one side? I was prescribed this medication for muscle spasms. ## According to Rising Pharmaceuticals, a manufacturer of Cyclobenzaprine, the expected shelf-life of the drug is 24 months (2 years). Reference: However, my understanding is if they are no longer in the original factory sealed container and have been dispensed into a pharmacy bottle, which exposes them to heat, light and moisture, then the expiration is one year from the date they were dispensed. After that time period, they begin to lose effectiveness. NOTE: For maximizing the shelf-life, the product description depicted on Rising Pharmaceuticals website as well as on DailyMed suggest that the recommended...

Well its about 2am and i been up becouse My mouth well gums started hurting around 12pm all of a sudden and all I have in the house is in profen 800 mg and/or these IG 283 pill I was wondering if I could take that for the pain two get me threw the night ## Hello, Brad! How are you? Actually, you'd be better of with the Ibuprofen if your doctor approves of you taking it, since it is classified by the FDA as an NSAID that is used to treat pain, fever and swelling. Its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache and stomach irritation. Cyclobenzaprine, however, is a muscle relaxant, not an analgesic, so it won't do anything to help with a toothache. Its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache and dry mouth. Is there anything e...

Doc has me on Cyclobenzaprine HCl (10 mg). 1 every 8 hrs as needed for back pain. These are very effective for the pain but make me VERY sleepy. I have read positive reviews on Soma. Does Soma have the same drowsy effect or can they be taken during the daytime ## Both Clyclobenzaprine and Soma, which contains Carisoprodol, are muscle relaxants and can cause drowsiness as a side effect. How long have you been taking it? Most side effects usually hit their peak around 4 to 6 weeks of use, once the medication reaches its full effectiveness in the body, and they will taper off in severity, after that. However, if you have been taking it longer than that and are still having such severe problems with the drowsiness, then you should definitely discuss it with your doctor. Is there anything el...

My husband asked his dr for a medicine to help him stop getting fever blisters everytime he was in the sun for long periods of time, he gave him a prescription for cyclobenzapr, read about it and it days its a muscle relaxer, will it even help with fever blisters and can he take it while on suboxone? ## Hello, KC! How are you and your husband? No, fever blisters are caused by a herpes simplex virus, exposure to the sun tends to wake it up and cause a flare, so this medication will not do anything to prevent them, because as you said, it is a muscle relaxant. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache and dry mouth. It can be taken with the Suboxone, though it will increase the sedation and drowsiness, so this should be done with caution. The...

My prescription says take one tablet by mouth twice daily as needed for pain my question is since my pain is worse at night can I take the two tablets at the same time before I go to bed? ## Hello, Tyusblue! How are you? !0mgs per dose is the maximum recommended currently. Have you consulted your doctor? They may be able to prescribe something else that would help with more of your nighttime pain.

what is the shelf life of cyclobenzapine 5 mg? ## Hi cindirs, According to Rising Pharmaceuticals, a manufacturer of Cyclobenzaprine, the expected shelf-life of the drug is 24 months (2 years). Reference: However, there's actually a lot of conflicting information around the topic of expired medication/shelf-life of a drug. According to a Harvard Medical School family health article, except in rare cases (i.e. tetracycline), there is little chance of danger due to taking medications even up to 15 years beyond their expiration date. This conclusion was based upon a study conducted at the request of the US military due to stockpiles of expensive drugs they could otherwise need to replace every few years. The conclusion was that 90% of those drugs remained effective 10 - 15 years after...

Cyclobenzapr (5 mg) was just prescribed for me at bedtime for 5 days. Should I continue taking ambien (10 mg) while taking this? ## Hello, Bush! How are you? What instructions did your doctor provide? It may be best to double check. While there aren't any actual dangerous interactions listed between these two medications, they can both increase sedation, which may be too much for some people, depending on their overall health. The FDA classifies Cyclobenzaprine as a muscle relaxant and lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache and dry mouth. ## Why can't I control my need to urinate while taking this medicine?

I have fibromaryia and my Dr prescribed CYCLOBENZAPR 10 MG . and lm always with pain such i keep taking them. ## Hello, Sugar! How are you? I actually doubt this medication will help much with the pain caused by fibromyalgia. Cyclobenzaprine is just a muscle relaxant, not a regular analgesic. Its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache and dry mouth, as listed by the FDA. Has it been helping you, at all?
