Small white pill NL at top..underneath the passing#4 think they r generic somas, I know a bigger white pill with that imprint is nicorette, but this is small ## Hi LOVIE, The only match I've come across is Nicorette (4 mg of nicotine polacrilex) like you mentioned. It's possible that you could have a Nicorette pill that was manufacturer by a different company or this one just includes less of the binders and fillers in the formula. What are your thoughts? You can learn more about this drug on the page for Nicorette Details ## I have no energy at all.I feel like I might take a nap for about two hours and cant get back to sleep,but then I get so tired I dont want to do anything but lay in bed and watch tv,But I take celexa for depression and have been on it for a long time,what co...

Can this muscle relaxer be taken to help with anxiety? ## Yes, as it has some similar properties as anti anxiety medicine. However Soma can also cause anxiety too! ## @Laura, I just did some research and read that Soma (Carisoprodol) can be used for anxiety like Eddy mentioned, however, it's not often prescribed for that because since it's a muscle relaxer it can actually have strong sedation effects. Also, Soma is only meant to be used in the short-term, often less than three weeks. There is a natural muscle relaxer known as valerian root that I've tried for anxiety but it also works for insomnia, and well, it definitely made me calm but also very very sleepy just like the Soma might do. I've also tried holy basil for anxiety- which doesn't make me tired at all! I t...

Small white pill NL at top..underneath the passing#4 think they r generic somas, I know a bigger white pill with that imprint is nicorette, but this is small ## From what I'm finding, it seems that there are just several that are Nicorette lozenges and all use the NL 4 marking on them. Learn more Nicorette details here. There aren't any Soma that I can find with that marking. Does it smell minty, like the lozenges do? ## Based on your description, the only match I'm finding is a 4mg "Commit Nicotine Lozenge", manufactured by GLAXO CONSUMER HEALTHCARE L.P. Apparently the Flavor is mint, so if you were to smell it up close or lick it, I'd imagine you'd be able to make a better determination as to what this pill really is; otherwise, no other matches are coming ...

why isnt SOMA considered a narcotic-my grandson has almost died 5 times now from taking too many-these pills are killers ## Basically Soma is not considered a narcotic because of its active ingredient Carisoprodol. It just does not fall under the definition of what a narcotic substance is. " In U.S. legal context, narcotic refers to opium, opium derivatives, and their semi-synthetic or fully synthetic substitutes 'as well as cocaine and coca leaves,' which although classified as 'narcotics' in the U.S. Controlled Substances Act (CSA), are chemically not narcotics. Contrary to popular belief, marijuana is not a narcotic, nor are LSD and other psychedelic drugs. Specifically, steroids are not narcotics. Many law enforcement officials in the United States inaccurately u...

SM WHITE ROUND PILL WITH LETTERS BHI HORIZONTALLY AND UNDER THE H VERTICALLY ARE OM ## is a soma and the roun white pill with 832/bc20 on it the same meication? ## The tablet with the BHI OM marking is actually an over the counter supplement used to help with urinary issues, it's called Uri-Control and is manufactured by Boots Healthcare International, hence the BHI. However, I've been unable to find a list of the specific ingredients. The tablet with the 832 BC 20 marking is also not Soma, it contains 20mgs of Baclofen, which is a more mild muscle relaxant. Side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache and dry mouth. Learn more Baclofen details here. Are there any questions or concerns?

soma compound which side is soma white or lavender ## For anyone still seeking an identification on this, the oblong, white tablet with the W on one side and 724 on the other contains 250mgs of Divalproex Sodium. So, it is not a Soma Compound tablet, nor is it any type of muscle relaxant. This medication is actually used to treat the manic episodes of bipolar disorder and epilepsy. Learn more Divalproex details here. Side effects may include nausea, dizziness, vomiting and hallucinations. As to tablets that may have one color on one side and a different one on the other, (this one does not!) you cannot separate out one drug constituent by color, that's not how it works. Are there any comments or concerns?

Have been told that Soma, or Meprobromate, is over-the-counter in Europe, and used mainly for anti-seizure med. Any info? ## I believe there was some confusion involved with this post. Soma contains the active ingredient Carisoprodol, it's a muscle relaxant. And Meprobamate is a minor tranquilizer and anti-anxiety medication. You can learn more Soma details here and you can learn more Meprobamate details here. Neither of which are approved anywhere that I'm aware of to treat seizures, but I imagine there are some countries that don't require prescriptions, especially since Mexico will sell virtually anything over the counter. Are there any questions or comments? Is there anything I can help with? ## Soma is a muscle relaxer too. I am on it through my dr. Along with loratab f...

Is prosoma the same drug as soma caropisal 350 just wandering. I just received a drug called prosoma and was curious. ## Is prosoma a narcotic, does it contain hydrocone ## @Jason, To answer your question, yes, Prosoma 350 is a foreign version of Carisoprodol 350mg; possibly from Europe. @todd, No, Carisoprodol is not a narcotic, nor does it contain hydrocodone. It is just a muscle relaxant in and of itself. You can learn more here: Carisoprodol Details If you have any more questions or concerns, please post back and I will be happy to help you. ## I just got the prosomas also was there a difference in them compared to just the somas

is soma similar or in the same categeory as flexiril, and if not, what is the difference between them? is soma stronger and is it a narcotic? ## WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SOMA AND FLEXIRIL ## Soma and flexeril are both muscle relaxers with soma being stronger than flexeril. However, soma also contains aspirin which flexeril does not. ## Thank you, Tracy! Tracy is spot on, except for one thing… Soma does not contain any Aspirin. The active ingredient in Soma is only Carisoprodol, which is a muscle relaxant. You can learn more Soma details here and you can learn more Flexeril details here. The one that contains other ingredients would be called Soma Compound and that one combines Carisoprodol and Aspirin, there is also another that contained both of those with Codei...

Out of my 45 year employment history, I have never had to take a drug screening before, so I know nothing about them. In the plain ol' urine drug screening, what are they looking for: pot, meth, crack, or are they testing more broadly for Soma, Oxycontin or Halcyon? Does it depend on the job as to what level of testing they do? My daughter had a urine drug test when she interviewed for a new job and she is on Adderal and Vyvance. She didn't even have a doctor's statement about being on them, but it didn't seem to have mattered as she was hired. I am on a pain management regime of oxycodone, Soma, Fiorinal and Lamictal (for depression) and my doctors have given me a physician's statement that I take these medications under their care, but I'm still concerned as I ...

I ordered from "theusrx" SOMA (Qty 120) this is the FIRST TIME I'VE EVER ORDERED FROM OVERSEAS & I'm becoming deeply worried / afraid that I won't know exactly what medicine I'm going to recieve & I'll have no way to verify what it is. It's been shipped from India.. Has anyone else here EVER ORDERED FROM THIS SITE & did you recieve what you expected?? Please help!!!!! ## Hi Lori, I haven't actually ordered from that site before, but it is pretty common for online pharmacies to ship generic medications from overseas. India is a big manufacturer of generic drugs. With that said, it is kind of hit or miss unfortunately. The challenge is that other than a lab test, there is no way to verify 100% what you are receiving since it is from outside ...

Chris B.- ## AND THEYB ARE NOT THE SAME AS THE 2410V SOMETHING IS MISSING IN THEM ## Both pills mentioned contain 350mgs of Carisoprodol, which is a muscle relaxant and a generic for Soma. It may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, dry mouth and headache. Learn more Soma details here. There isn't anything missing, but there can be slight fluctuations, so one may not work as well for you as another. And both are approved by the FDA for use in the U.S. Are there any oth...

Effects of soma & tl211 taken together ## The tablet with the TL 112 marking contains 10mgs of Cyclobenzaprine, the active ingredient in Flexeril, which is a muscle relaxant. Learn more Flexeril details here. The Soma is a also a muscle relaxant, so this would be doubling up on the same medication, which is unnecessary. Additionally, there can be some associated risks, since they can both cause depression of the central nervous system, combining them could cause a dangerously low heart rate, lowered blood pressure and shallow breathing. To someone sensitive to these medications, or if someone takes too much, it could result in death. Are there any other questions or comments?

It's a white round pill not very small, with a capital D on one side and a 31 on the other side. ## a white pill marked D on one side and 31 on the other side ## 350mg Soma stong muscle relaxer ## It is soma 350mg cause Im currently taking this med ## The provided identification is correct, it does contain 350mgs of Carisoprodol, a generic for Soma and I'd just like to add some side effect details. Since this is a muscle relaxant, it may cause nausea, dizziness, drowsiness and a kind of sedated/relaxed feeling. Due to these side effects and how potent it is, many people think it is either a narcotic, or just a general analgesic, but it isn't. It solely works on muscles to help alleviate the pain caused by spasms, strains and sprains and it will not help with pain due to othe...

I know some somas do wanna figure out if this one dose. 350mg ## K.. I TAKE HYDROCODONE.... WAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEM HYDROW AND SOMAS ## I think some misunderstandings need to be cleared up in regards to this post. The medication just called Soma, or its generics Carisoprodol do not contain Codeine, or any other narcotic. Carisoprodol is the only active ingredient in them. Thus, though it is a muscle relaxant that can help with muscle spasms that cause pain, it will not help with other types of pain, such as nerve pain or surgical pain as a narcotic would. It is solely used for muscle pain and spasms. And the tablet originally asked about here, with the 2410 V marking contains only 350mgs of Carisoprodol, so it is a generic for Soma that contains no narcotics whatsoever. You can di...

Where is a safe place to fill my Soma rx with the Watson brand, (Dan Brand), or Qualitest Brand manufactured in the USA? ## If you're searching online, I think your best bet for finding reputable online pharmacies that can fill your prescription, would be to see the list which the NABP (National Association of Boards of Pharmacy) maintains through their VIPPS certification.

Does m15 m blue pills cause you to have energy. Or is it like a soma just relaxes you? ## The pill you are describing is identified as Morphine sulfate extended release 15 mg. Interestingly enough, some people do get lots of energy from taking Morphine. But there are others who become more prone to its side effects, which can bring about a sense of tiredness. You may want to give it a trial run to see how well you respond to it. A list of side effects can be found here: nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/druginfo/meds/a682133.html#side-effects Just keep in mind: the things you eat and your activity level can really impact what energy you do have and how this drug might affect it. I hope this helps to answer your question!
