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
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.
