For Muscle Spasm "I have had cervical fusion in the past, and when I am extremely stressed or do too much manual labor, I sometimes get severe muscle spasms. I was given samples of Amrix and took it in the evening and slept like a baby. The next day at work, I didn't have any drowsiness, but also did not have spasms or pain until it was time to take it again. I took it only for 5 days, and it was enough to calm the muscles down."

"This drug has improved my quality of life greatly! The first week I had drop attacks at my desk at work, and I was drowsy. The key is to take this medication at 4 pm and consecutively. I do experience dry mouth too. I have four neurostimulators implanted in my head to help with pain, and I take gabapentin, Topamax, Paxil, folic acid, hydrocodone, a special gabapentin/lidocaine cream, and vitamins on a daily basis to function like a human being. For rescue, I take Maxalt, and if severe enough, Butorphanol-Tartrate. This medicine has given me hope again and made me able to decrease pain meds during the day! This med runs about $400 with my insurance."

For Muscle Spasm "The most common things I have noted are drowsiness, and from reading here, it makes my tongue swell and hurt. I'm so glad I read that. I couldn't figure out why! It's okay as a muscle relaxant, but nothing to write home about."

For Muscle Spasm "I had pretty significant muscle spasms in my neck after my car was rear-ended. This medicine pretty much stopped all of the pain and allowed me to sleep soundly. The only problem is that it makes me drowsy."
