Muscle Relaxant Methocarbomal And Cyclobenzaprine Overdose?

I took two 750mg Methocarbomal pills and ONE 10mg Cyclobenzaprine HCl pill. I am a 180lbs female at 5'7". I'm worried that it may be too much, but the methocarbomal by itself wasn't easing my pain. Will I be okay to sleep or should I seek medical help?

How are you doing? Are you okay?

First of all, muscle relaxants are not the same as analgesics, so you can't expect them to ease your pain as an actual pain medication would.

These can ease pain caused by muscle pain and spasms, but that's the most they do.

You can learn more Methocarbamol details here and you can learn more Cyclobenzaprine details here.

And it is never wise to double up on any medication and to add another in the same category, that's a very dangerous thing to do.

These can cause depression of the central nervous system, which can lead to a dangerously lowered heart rate, shallow breathing and low blood pressure and if those go too low, it could be fatal.

If you are worried about your life, you should always seek medical attention.
