| Add Carisoprodol review I have been on soma, 350 mg tablets, 4 times a day. My new drug prescription plan that goes into affect on July 1, 2013, does not provide soma at a reduced cost. Any idea why? What would be a good medication to use for muscle relaxation? I can run it by Express Scripts and see if they honor other drugs such as flexeril. I took this medication after experiencing an intolerance to Flexeril. I found it very effective at relieving muscle spasm. It does, however, give me headaches if I take it for more than a couple days. | Add Flexeril review Prescribed for muscle spasm. Used to get muscle spasms in my lower back when sitting up or laying down, at random times. Been taking for about 3 weeks now, and no more muscle spasms. Doesn't help with back pain, though. I have only taken this drug for 3 days. I take a great deal of medicine otherwise due to many health causes. I take for muscle spasms, does not knock me out & my spasms go away. Flexeril has been a life savor. I have a bunch of medical problems, and flexeril has helped so so much!! I would definantly recommend this drug to anyone that is prescribed it or is debating to take it!! | |||
