MedHelp Member's Question

Robaxin

by shelly405, Dec 14, 2007 02:13PM

Hi all,

I recently decided to quit the Vicodin, with help from this forum. It went pretty well, and I have been clean for 3 weeks. My Dr. and I tossed around switching to Darvacet for the pain. Well, I went to the DR today and saw my Dr's Physicians' Assistant, and she told me ALL the muscles in my back and neck are in distress, and she gave me something called ROBAXIN. She wouldn't give me any pain meds at all. I took one, and am supposed to take 1 every 6 hours. I am feeling REALLY GOOD. It's a muscle relaxant, and it is doing the job. I want to know if anyone knows about this drug - Am I about to get hooked again? It really feels good to be able to move, but I am concerned about abuse.
Any info appreciated.

I started taking that a couple of weeks ago. It really works well! I do not think it is addicting, I do not have problems if I don't take it. Good luck : )
