As many of you may know, I have several back conditions. Well, my Doctor just prescribed Soma for me, I know that it is a muscle relaxer, and is not a narcotic. However, I have read alot about it and many people state that it is very close to a narcotic in the way that it makes you feel. So, basically my question is, And if any of you have taken it, please share your experience with me! I don't like the loopy drugged up feeling, so please let me know your experience and if this compares at all to Vicodin or Percocet.
Does Soma give you feeling of "well being" like you get with Vicodin or Percocet?

Soma will not necessarily give you a sense of "Well being" or euphoria, it will, however, knock you out and you WILL feel loopy and drugged up. DO NOT CONSUME ANY ALCOHOL WITH THIS MEDICINE!!! You will be sleeping within 15 minutes and will not wake up for hours, if you've had even one drink! It is not a scheduled drug where I'm from, but probably should be. It has very high abuse potential, and is exremely dangerous when taken in combination with narcotic pain meds, Benzo's, or Alcohol. Google "Soma Coma", and you will find info and statistics on how dangerous it actually is.

Yes I completly agree with zig. I have been on them for allmost three years now along with other drugs. The only thing I notice is that if I miss a pill or a day then the spasms get bad. real bad. Can't walk and will be on the floor writhing in pain. For me they are a blessing. I am way past worring about addiction issues. If it works helps my symptoms then I will take as prescribed. That is crucial. The medications must be taken as prescribed to get the full benefit. I would be bedridden or dead if it wasn't for my pain Management Dr and PCP. I was prescribed somas twice a day 350mg and for me it works wonders on my muscle spasms. I call them permanent charlie horses... Good Luck to you B
