Advice & Tips
My doctor gave me free samples because Medicare didn't cover it, she gave me months at a time, but is no longer getting them. By far, I can say this was one of the best medications I have ever taken!

Advice & Tips
I loved this medication. When my muscles ached and Ibuprofen didn't work, it did. When the doctor told me to stop taking the medication, I really didn't want to but since there was a change in my treatment with another medication, I had to stop.

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
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.
