Advice & Tips
It worked GREAT! I love the relief from pain however I become totally dysfunctional, I will be out for about 18 hours when I take this. So when my pain is so severe I am in a very dark place I will take a half of one to knock myself out to keep my self safe. Pain relief but a the trade off is vertical time.

Advice & Tips
Be careful, it may may make you quite grogey. I took this many years ago and it seemed to work quite well. But I guess with all the fatigue catching up to me now....I just can't take any more. I only took one tab at night, which seemed to be good for sleeping, but not so good for getting started in the morning.

Advice & Tips
I have found that my use of Skelaxin 800 mg. twice a day was a much better treatment. I had asked the Doc to change because of the expense; but now the Skelaxin comes in a generic and costs half the price. I am now back on Skelaxin generic.

Advice & Tips
Only problem I have with this med is that it makes me have dry mouth, a terrible unquenchable thirst. That is why I don't always take it. I usually take it as needed.

This does make me sleepy and makes my legs a little restless. I only take it when I feel really bad and the pain in my legs is unbearable. It does make my stomach a little more sensitive than normal.
