Advice & Tips
This provided good pain relief for me with my muscle pain. I used it on a PRN basis only, and only when I really needed it. It did make me drowsy, but it was worth it to me, for the pain relief. Liked this med, but doctor wouldn't prescribe for me any more, possibly due to being on Cymbalta and having elevated liver enzymes temporarily.

Advice & Tips
I have twitches in my legs at night - not RLS, but from several cases of shin splints during my growing and adolescent years. Not exactly painful, but enough to be uncomfortable. The Cyclobenzoprene is quite effective at settling these cramps down - more so than it is for relieving my muscle spasms and general muscle pain.

Having severe back spasms, so started taking the Flexeril again--10mg once or twice per day. It causes sleepiness and "hung-over" feeling.

Advice & Tips
It can make you very sleepy if you are not used to taking it, so watch out for that. Change your positions (like from laying to sitting) very slowly to avoid dizziness or faintness. It has helped my severe muscle spasms in my calves, along with the Soma.
