Does Methocarbamol contain any non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs? If so, how does it work? ## No, it is a muscle relaxant that works by helping to relax smooth muscles, to relieve the pain caused by muscle sprains, strains, and spasms. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, and dry mouth. Has it been prescribed for you? Are you on any other medications? ## I have taken a robaxin 750 mg and it hasn't kicked in yet and its been almost a hour is there something I can take with it ## 'm on high blood pressure medicine and antidepressant called Wellbutrin ## Can I take Methocarbamol 500mg with Prednisone 5mg.

Is it safe to take Baclofen and Soma together? I have not done it yet so I'm a little leery, but I hurt all over due to an automobile accident. ## No, these are both muscle relaxants, so you would be doubling up, which might result in overdose toxicity. The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, and dry mouth. Have they both been prescribed for you? What type of injuries did you suffer? ## Was curious..i was just prescribed baclofen recently by neurologist. Been on soma for years & works great. I want to know if i take my soma in the day can i take the baclofen@ night..i haven't started yet as i have had many med allergies..wanna be sure its safe.

pill, white, not scored, no writing, large, round ## i received approx dime size round white pill scored no writing thats supposed to be soma did i get ripped off? ## If a tablet has no markings, then it is not any type of legal U.S. prescription medication. The FDA requires that they all have unique markings on them to enable their identification in case of emergency. By looking up the markings on a tablet it can be discovered what the tablet contains, what the dosage is, and what company manufactured it. If there are no markings on it, then it is most likely an over the counter product of some type, however, there is also a small chance that it might be a foreign medication, and if that is the case, there is no way of being certain what the tablets contain. *Soma contains the active i...

white oval scored 4 ways on one side and p180 on the other ## I believe the imprint you were looking at was actually R 180, it matches this description. It is manufactured by Par Pharmaceuticals and they list it as containing 4mgs of Tizanidine, which is a muscle relaxant that is used to treat pain associated with strains, sprains, and spasms. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, dry mouth, and headache. Do you think the letter could be an R?

WHAT DOES TIZANIDINE SHOW UP AS ON DRUG SCREEN ## Does zanaflex show up on a lab 12 panel drug test? ## Can Zanaflex show up on a drug urine test as a benzo? ## I see questions but not a single reply. What kind of forum is this? ## My friend has DC's case fighting custody of her daughter and had an old prescription for zanaflex. She was having bad leg spasms because she started a new job and started the spasms in her legs again. She is concerned she may fail a urine and/or hair follicle test because she took some thinking it wasn't a narcotic and wouldn't show in a drug test. I need accurate information. Can someone please help? She is a good mother and I want to help my friend, please and thank you.

It says on the bottle that it is a diet pill, but when I googled Phentermine none of the descriptions of what the pill looked like matched blue and white capsule.

Found a bottle of tizanidine filled in 2015. Will it be safe to take? If so, will it still work? Also can you take seroquel with tizanidine? ## This medication does not become dangerous once expired, but it may start to lose efficacy, according to FDA reports. They can be taken together, if they have both been prescribed for you, but you may experience more severe side effects than usual, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, and confusion. When was it filled in 2015? Usually, the expiration date is a year from the date it was dispensed to you by your pharmacy. ## It was filled 4/2014 and it says expires on 4/2015. Sorry looked at the expiration instead date filled, so I guess that tells me its too old, right? Thanks for taking time to reply. So are they really bad? ## I have a bootle ...

It was issued on June of 2011 to me for pain I don't see an expiration date. My pain is back. Is it safe to use it? ## HI, Louis! How are you? This medication isn't one of those that gets dangerous, once it's expired, but it does lose effectiveness. The expiration date would be one year from when it was dispensed to you, or when the original factory sealed container was opened. Learn more Orphenadrine details here. Thus, over 2 years later, they really aren't going to help much and you should see that they are disposed of properly. Have you contacted your doctor? It's also not good to try and self-diagnose, if something different is causing your pain this time, this may not be the appropriate medication to treat it. ## Is it ok to take an expired prescription? I have...

2 days ago I took Nabumetone 750mg (one capsule). If I start taking Cyclobenzaprine 5 mg, will this be safe? ## I didn't find any problems, or interactions listed, I would think the risk would be very low after taking them 2 days apart, but it is always best to double check such information to be safe. The FDA lists the typical side effects of Cyclobenzaprine as possibly including nausea, headache, drowsiness, dizziness, dry mouth, and sedation. Are you on any other medications?

what is this pill...it is oblong about 1/2 inch, palw yellow color and had APO 500 stamped on it. it has a mark downe the centre crosswise ## I've been looking for this one, off an on, since I saw your post and while I have found some with a similar marking, they do not match the appearance of this tablet. Was it found in the U.S. or elsewhere? Does anyone else recognize this? ## It's a muscle relaxant, prescription strength. ## I sort of figured out what it is? I think it's an anti inflamatory I got for my torn tendon in my shoulder from urgent care. At the time I did'nt know it was torn! Now I'm waiting for surgery here in Ontario Canada. Probably has some pain medication in it too? Just must have put it in different container. I'm only using ice for pain now t...

I was just wondering if anyone out there has over-used zanaflex? I am ashamed to admit I did. I was just so desperate to sleep at night. One or two wasn't cutting it so I started going up to 6, 7, or 8 at I time. I would never ever recommend this for anyone. It was just my own desperation and stupidity. I have always had giant tolerances to everything. Anyway, this stuff would put me down hard, it was hard to get up and walk myself to the bathroom and the other thing was the vivid hallucinations, i have never experienced anything like it before. Everything I was seeing was so real it was scary and I would even see people and hold conversations with them. In the morning i would be completely fine. Thankfully i am in treatment for addiction now to various other substances. I just neve...

Is it still ok to take Cyclobenzaprine pills two months after expiration? ## Hi tonya, You might be surprised to know that certain drugs are actually okay to take for up to 15 years after expiration, whereas others such as antibiotics can become toxic. My personal assumption is that two-month old Cyclobenzaprine should be perfectly fine to take. Given the option, I would still feel safe taking it within that time frame. The article linked below, by Harvard University, should help shed some light on the topic of expired medication: health.harvard.edu/fhg/updates/update1103a.shtml On a related note, while the topic of drug expiration may be based on arbitrary numbers & best guesstimates, according to Rising Pharmaceuticals, a manufacturer of Cyclobenzaprine, the "expected" she...
