Would Zanaflex Help Me?

I'm prescribed klonopin for dystonia. I missed my Dr. appointment, which I was supposed to get a refill on, so I was wondering if zanaflex would prevent me from seizing? I know that xanax & valium has.

No, Zanaflex is a muscle relaxant, the FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, and dry mouth.

Have you contacted your doctor? They may be able to phone something in for you, at least until you can get in for a new appointment.

Are you on any other medications?
