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."

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."
