Overall, it really depends what works best for you, and the only way to find out is to try various medications and see, but if you have muscle spasms, Motrin will not help with them as much as a muscle relaxant, since it is just a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory. (Motrin NDC for more details 0179-0040.) The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased risk of bleeding, and stomach irritation. They also warn that combining all 3 could cause you to experience worsened side effects, like more several nausea, dizziness, and drowsiness.
