Muscle Relaxer Forums (Page 13)

First off, I took the prescribed dose and it literally did nothing. I do suffer from muscle spasms and it didn't even help that. But the crazy thing is I'm on Valium and was asking my doctor to switch back to xanax since I was previously on that and the Valium just isn't working anymore. He then writes me for Zanaflex instead! I need a new doctor in the Phoenix area... I can't deal with this constant trial and error of meds paying out of pocket for crap medications when I know what works best for me. I've been dealing with this for over 10 years. I'm also on suboxone for pain management so it's hard to even find a dr who will write a benzo with that... but I suffer debilitating panic attacks and I have a 6 month old baby. I told him the Valium isn't worki...

Does orphenadrine er 100mg show up as anything on a pre-employment drug screen? I didn't take any for two days before the drug test but I still wonder... ## From what I am reading, it shouldn't, it is in the antihistamine class of medications, it is generally used to prevent pain and muscle spasms. Side effects may include: dry mouth, drowsiness, restlessness and urinary retention. ## Can orphenadrine show up as a false positive for barbiturates? We are trying to get our kid back and my son's dad had his drug test come back as positive, and this is the only new med he is taking.

I found a white round pill that has the pharmascience symbol on one side and on the other side, M with a 10 below it. Anyone who what this pill could be? ## I had this prescription for these ages ago. It was to help me sleep. Not sure if it's actually for that or a muscle relaxant. Don't know the name of the pill though. I am searching for it with no results.

capsule green and clear ## a capsule, dark green on one side, clear light green on the other, no writing or logo. Appears to be white powder inside. From Mexico, said to be a 'muscle relaxant' Is this true? ## DRx lists this capsule as containing 12mgs of Brompheniramine, and 120mgs of Pseudoephedrine, normally sold under the brand name Pseubrom. NDC code: 55045-1554 The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, insomnia, nervousness, elevated blood pressure, and elevated heart rate. Ernesto, if there are no markings, there is no way to really be sure what it contains. Do you know anything else about it?

How long does Soma stay in your urine?? My dr's office has a new machine that can detect ANYTHING even o.t.c meds.. I'm not suspose to be taking the soma anymore but its the only thing that helps me with my nerves & pain!! Also..does anyone know if it is a "controled substance" now?? I know whn I WAS perscribed to Soma..they was NOT controlled!!??? ## CEEPS: As with any drug, the amount you consume depends on the time it will be in your system. I am prescribed to SOMA and know for a fact that it is now considered a controlled substance. Anything you have to show a photo ID for at the pharmacy is also. This is just a guess, but I would think it takes 3-4 days to get out of your system. The good news is that Soma, along with a few other drugs have to be specifically te...

How long does it take zanaflex to get completely out of your system? ## How long does it take for 1mg zanaflex to leave the system for UA? I might have one on Monday. ## @Terrar , Based on my research, zanaflex (tizanidine) may take anywhere from 3 to 5 days to get completely out of your system. This isn't counting your hair follicles though, which they say can take up to 90 days. I also read that even though tizanidine has a short half life of 2.5 hours, its metabolites have a significantly longer half life ranging from 20 to 40 hours; making a single dose last as long as 80 to 90 hours in your system. @Shelby (post #1): With regards to a drug panel, my understanding is that because this medication is not a controlled substance, it's likely that it wont even be checked for in a...

Hello. I'm having a very difficult time getting a straight answer on this subject. Will it show up as a benzo? Opiate? Has anyone taken a 12 panel after taking it recently and passed? ## does baclofen test positive in pre employment drug test. ## I was hoping someone had answered this question. I just started taking Baclofen. I am on so many Rx that I feel like a walking drug store. At my age I would be absolutely horrified (!) if hospital blood test results made the staff think I was taking any type of methamphetamine or any other illegal drug. I have never taken illegal drugs--ever. If anyone knows whether Baclofen then would show up in a blood test as a street drug would you please let Grandma know? ## I was on Baclofen and it showed up as a methamphetamine in something else beca...

I just moved from NYC to the Florida panhandled. I am having a difficult time finding a pain management doctor who will continue the meds I have been on for a broken back, failed spinal fusion. I take oxycondone and soma. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. My other choice is to fly back to NY. Many thanks ## You will probably need to fly back to New York for now. However after a reasonable amount of time your out of state providers might cut you off and tell you to find a Doctor in your area ## I know this is older but just in case you're still looking...Dr. David Norfleet in crestview. They take insurance. He has no bedside manner and honestly I don't like him BUT after the first visit you see the NP and she is WONDERFUL! Very caring! The office staff is beyond rude....

I had taken a muscle relaxer many years ago for my back. I remember the pill was either pink or red and oblong. I dont remember the name of it. I am currently suffering from sciatica and my doctor doesnt want to prescribe me a muscle relaxer because they make you drowsy. I remember this muscle relaxer did not make me drowsy so I want to tell him about it and maybe have him perscribe it for me. Only problem is I need to know what its called. If anyone can help please. ## I took one similar to what you've described, it was Skelaxin, which is used as a muscle relaxant, it contains the active ingredient Metaxalone. NDC code: 10544-524-20 Does that look familiar? It is now available as a generic, so they don't all look the same. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly incl...

Just wanted to know what this is used for ## I'm sorry, but I can't find anything listed under this name. Did you mean Flexeril, which is a muscle relaxant? ## I find my hubby using them and I am curious ## I have found that Flexim also goes by the names Methocarbamol and Robaxin. Methocarbamol is a central muscle relaxant used to treat skeletal muscle spasms. Under the trade name Robaxin, it is marketed by Actient Pharmaceuticals in the United States and Pfizer in Canada.

I feel a burning sensation &swelling on my hands, and just pain on my feet. I believe Rumoquin N.F. was given to me by a doctor in Mexico. I would like to know if Rumoquin N.F. brand (MARCEL) was this medicine, and how many can I take daily for pain? ## Rumoquin NF contains the active ingredients: 100mgs of Phenylbutazone (a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory): 200mgs of Methocarbamol (a muscle relaxant): and Dexamethasone (a corticosteroid): It is commonly used to these types of symptoms, as well as arthritis. As to the dosage, since this is not available in the U.S. I cannot find this information. Does anyone else know? ## Can someone let me know what the side effects of RUMOQUIN N.F. are??

show me a picture please ## you never showed me the piture i asked to see. ## Cyclobenzaprine is a generic muscle relaxant, so it manufactured by several different companies, and each tablet may look different, depending on the manufacturer and dosage. What are the markings on the tablet in question? That would enable me to find more precise information for you. Can you please post back and clarify? The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, dry mouth, and headache.

I originally wrote on 3/16/14 looking for a pain doctor in north central Arkansas or southern Missouri...I live in Mountain Home, AR & am willing to drive to Springfield MO or as far south as Little Rock AR, as far west as Fayetteville or as far east as Jonesboro. I moved from California to Arkansas to be with my sister a year ago & am still unable to find a doctor here who will prescribe the meds I was taking in CA, which were 60 mg MSContin twice daily, 350 mg Soma three times daily, and 1-2 10 mg oxycodone every 4 hrs, plus a 3rd one 45 minutes later if I really needed it. It is like the twilight zone here in AR; every doctor thinks you're a drug addict even though I have all my surgery records, films, discharge instructions (I'd been in a nursing home for 2 yrs befor...

It's a pink oblong pill with 448 on it and some type of logo next to the #'s. No other letters or numbers on it, what other details are needed? Is it a muscle relaxer? ## Is the marking possibly a stylized E with the 448? If so, it is manufactured by Sandoz Pharmaceuticals, and they list it as containing 800mgs of Metaxalone, which is a muscle relaxant. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, drowsiness, and dry mouth.

I SEE MOST POST ON HERE ASKING FOR SOMEONE TO FILL A CERTAIN DRUG THEY NEED. WELL TIMES ARE CHANGING FOR MORE THAN 1 REASON. IT IS NEXT TO IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND ANY DOCTOR THAT WILL TAKE A NEW PATIENT AND PRESCRIBE ANY ANY ANY, CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE. THANKS TO DEA, WAR ON DRUGS IS NOW IN PAIN MANAGEMENT. ALSO INSURANCE COMPANIES AND A RECENT STUDY, THAT SHOWED A PATIENT MAY DIE IN THEIR SLEEP IF GIVEN OVER A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF TABS OF OPIATES IN A DAY. THIS IS A POOR EXAMPLE OF A STUDY. COULD BE 4 MG OR 1000 MG THAT IS WHY YOU NOW SEE ALL THE INSURANCE COMPANIES NOW PUTTING CAPS ON THE AMOUNT THEY WILL ALLOW YOU TO HAVE. THEY I GUESS ARE NOW PLAYING DOCTOR. THEY ARE MAKING IT HARDER AND MORE WORK FOR DOCS TO EVEN WANT TO PRESCRIBE CERTAIN MEDICATIONS. I HAVE BLUE CROSS AND MEDICARE AND NEVER...

These pills are all white with no coding no score marks or anything on it. I was told the are methoarbamol but i can't find any proof of that that thanks! ## If there is no imprint, then it is not a legal US prescription medication, as Methocarbamol would be. Was it found or obtained in the US? That said, with no imprint, it would have to be a foreign medication or something available over the counter and impossible to positively identify, unless you would pay to have it lab tested. There are many pills that meet this description, far too many possiblities to list. I am sorry, I wish I could be more helpful! ## I have Pills with nothing on them and i get them from the vitamin store, my pill is a sleeping aid. i wouldnt trust any unmarked pill from anyone.. ## I found a white round p...
