Carisoprodol vs Vicodin
 | Carisoprodol |  | Vicodin |  |
| Carisoprodol is used short-term to treat muscle pain and discomfort. It is usually used along with rest, physical therapy, and other treatments. It works by helping to relax the muscles. | Vicodin is used to relieve moderate to severe pain. It contains a narcotic pain reliever (hydrocodone) and a non-narcotic pain reliever (acetaminophen). Hydrocodone works in the brain to change how your body feels and responds to pain. Acetaminophen can also reduce a fever. | |||

| 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 Vicodin review somerelief Good drug - especially for my sinus infections. My only side effect - mild hot flashes for about 15 mins i have been given ms contin 15mg for a change. the new drug does not seem to help the pain as much. i am having muscle spasms. is this normal? | |||
