Thank you for taking the time
Sorry,I am in Canada and we can buy robaxin,chlorzoxazone,and norflex without a prescription.The chlorzoxazone is in combination with acetaminophen and the others can be bought,but only from the dispensary.The only suggestion I have is maybe advil pm will be slightly better than advil alone.
Thank you but in the USA it is a prescription.
If you have no stomach issues or kidney problems try advil with a muscle relaxant.Robaxin platinum has ibuprofen with robaxin.Maybe that will help the pain and help relax the muscles.You can buy it without a prescription.
Hi, I am bumping this "back to the future", I hope that is OK.
This post more or less describes my problem. My addiction went out of contril 2 weeks ago. My Doc ordered ultram which I had no idea was so addicting but the pharm would not fill it because of major reactions with Zoloft. Doc substituted it with Darvocet, I also had a script for fierocet for migranes. I had no Soma for the last 3 weeks. Needledd to say I ended up a mess which hubby will not tolerate.
I willingly went to outpatient rehab. I have Fibromylagia, 4 (or 5) discs in my neck are bad. Ortho said this was not a surgical fix as too many disca are involved. Due to the neck issues my neck is always out and I cannot always get to the chiro.
When the neck is "out" that bad it affects many other muscles and joints. At times the base of my skull hurts so bad and pounds like a migrane, I can only lay on the couch with a pillow rolled under to stretch the neck.
The soma seems to work the best. The other 2 drugs are not always here and darvocet will never be perscribed to me again because of tylenol issues W / Liver. I am also going to have my doc write in my files no more fierocet.
I was recently, not even a month yet, given neurontin for fibro pain and I really don't think it does much if anything. We bought a hot tub, a new mattress and I have just about every massage thing on the market.
Sorry this is so long but I tried to hit all bases. Any suggestions on the soma? I probably have maxed at 10 soma in a day. In my case I am prescribed 1 or 2 ,,,3 or 4 times a day so sometimes I take 3 later in the day and it is very obvious. Hubby will not tolerate it and I need to find another option for my chronic pain. Any suggestions?
Thank You

Soma is not a drug that needs to be tapered. So, if you can stop cold turkey--go for it!! The sooner, the better.
