Hello, Tony! How are you?

No, you shouldn't take it earlier than the prescribed dosing schedule.

This isn't an analgesic, anyway, so it really won't help with pain like that. The FDA classifies this as a muscle relaxant, so it helps relieve the pain associated with strains, sprains and spasms. Its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache and dry mouth.

If you need something else for pain, you should speak to your doctor about what you can take.

Is there anything else I can help with?
