User Reviews for Flexeril oral

My muscles hurts so much,and when i take this medicine with my pain pills ,i get very good relief, along with my weekly deep muscle massages.

Just started taking flexiril 10mg. at bedtime. Surprisingly, it is working very well for my back muscle spasms. I could hardly move before because I need spine surgery and all the muscles around the area that needs to be fused are very tight. I hope this medication works well for me because I can hardly bear my spinal bone pain.

personally i dont take this but my Grandmother takes this and it works but........ it makes her whole body swell...

Did not do anything for muscles spams. All it did was make me super drowsy and left my mouth very dry.

When I first took flexeril I slept most of the day, I prefer to take it at night, the one thing I noticed is that the shape of mine looks like a slice of bread now not like the ones here that I called the house pill b/c I could never remember the name. So you might want to check it out, other than that I am satisfied with this med

This medication seemingly has no effect on me besides withdrawal. It doesn't relax my muscles as all. It also doesn't make me drowsy or foggy minded. The only noticeable effect was the next morning my muscles were stiffer than they've ever been before. It didn't feel like knots but rather intense stiffness. I reluctantly tried a double dose a week later to see if it would have any effect but the result was the same: No effect that day and intense stiffness the next day, only worse thanks to the extra dosage.Read More Read Less

I take this once in a while for migraines related to muscle spasms in my neck. NOw my insurance won't allow because of my age. I am very upset

ive been takeing the med for musle spans and majyor migraines. its been helping a lot with the migraines but the musle spams have been getting bmore frequent and stronger.

I got it for a muscle spasm in my neck. It seems to be getting better. Makes you slightly dopey feeling.

Works very well for muscle spasms in the lower back but makes it hard to concentrate on work the day after taking it.

I'm also prescribed Vicodin as short term. Both together work great! (for short term!)

Dr has me on cocktail of meds, that all interact, need an overall review!

I was given this when tizanidine became less effective. I found that muscel relaxers have been helpful in controling my Fibromyalgia Pain. When I first started it, it work really well, even through flare ups. Now its great on the day to day, but not so much during flare ups. When I started this med my doctor had me start with 1/2 tab (5mg) morning & afternoon and whole tab (10mg) at bedtime, as a comon side effect was thst its suppose to be a med to make you really drowsy, this was not a problem for me, so my doctor said to do 10mg three times a day.Read More Read Less

I was placed on this medication 5mg in 2010 after spine surgery/fusion due to herniated disc at the C3/C4. Fast forward to 2015, I have a new herniated disc, however, this medication along with Oxycodone 5/325 once per day, has been a lifesaver. I take one flexeril before 8 AM, 1 Oxy by 10AM, and one final Flexeril before 8 PM. This schedule keeps me from waking up in the morning feeling groggy. I have a very low tolerance for drugs, so the 5mg works great for me. I go through my day without feeling tired but I credit that to B12/B6 and coffee in the AM. My doctor said that I can take the Flexeril longterm because the side effects are small and rare unless you are over 60 and I am 43.Read More Read Less

My Dr put me on Flexeril,also Methocarbamol,both a muscle relaxant ,also Oxycodone 30mg and Gabapentin 300mg.Dont this seem like a lot of the same meds.This was a pain management Dr.Im afraid to take this all in the same day? Being treated for back pain.the Flexeril makes me feel awful the next morning.He did have me on Soma,which was good!

I have had RLS for many years due to scoliosis, as this drug DOES work for me; the side effects are not worth the result. After just one dose I find that I'm more irritable and angry at everyone who looks my direction. I use it sparingly for this reason.

I guess I Feel lucky. This medicine works well with my systems. I take it at night only but wake up feeling well with no hang-over effect.Actually I feel ready to go with no back or neck spasm's for most of the day.

Had a total reverse shoulder and left elbow replacement 4 years ago and was on 30mg MS every 12 hrs for breakthrough pain and 25mcg od Fentanyl for round the clock pain management. I was slowly weaned off with good results. Recently the pain started coming back and I take 10mg Roxicodone without Tylenol with 10mg of Flexeril 3x daily and the results are great !!
