Flexeril does not really take away my pain, but it helps me relax and sleep. If you take too much, it will cause confusion.

I agree with the previous person on this medication for sciatica. It does help you to sleep but does nothing for pain throughout the day.

I think it works for my sciatica but I'm unusually weak after I wake up.

I suffered horribly from sciatica. Flexeril helps loosen my leg and back. It helps with muscle spasms. I can tell before my leg is ready to lock up. I take Flexeril and in 20 minutes, it loosens up. With a combination of medicines and stretching, I am recovering.

Flexeril and Percocet are the only medicines that help me out of pain with a herniated L5 dics and a pinched nerve.

This is my first time to use it. I take it as soon as I wake up and it does make a difference, but doesn't do a lot for the pain.

Dry mouth is a side effect that is most unpleasant

This has been a wonderful addition to the pain medicines, with enabling a reduction in pain medicines from using this to stop the spasms that irritated the nerves. With my nerves less irritated, I was more fun to be around!

Brand Name works great. Does the job and not even noticeable to myself that I've taken it. It will make me sleepy once I lay down, but fully functional on this medication until then. I've taken this drug since 1992. Unfortunately can NOT find this medicine in Brand name.
