"I think the drug might cause my migraines. I lift weights and cycle and swim. I have back issues, so I take the drug every once in a while. It stands to reason to me that this drug might disturb things and cause that wave of depolarization that shows up as the aura that leads to the pain. I haven't kept a diary to show more than one instance or association with drug taking and the migraine."

"Tried 1/2 tablet at bedtime for migraine and neck pain. Have experienced extreme fatigue in the morning lasting for about half the day. Headache and neck pain are the same. The fatigue and loss of energy are not worth it for me."

"I was prescribed cyclobenzaprine by my neurologist when I got a lot of neck pain along with my migraines. At one point, I had a continuous migraine for a month, and the only thing that broke it was taking Compazine 10 mg, cyclobenzaprine 10 mg, and Benadryl 12.5 mg every night. After about five days, this finally broke my month-long migraine. I often use it together with my migraine medicines. If I get neck pain prior to the headache, sometimes taking cyclobenzaprine can prevent a headache from coming on. It seems effective for me."

"Like others on here, I accidentally found out that this is the one medication that can truly stop my headaches! Combined with Advil and finally relief! And totally today I woke up headache-free and wanted to put on my makeup and realized I could see better. I was looking through the comments, and this seems to be my unique experience. I’d rather than blurring my vision, this drug seems to have improved my eyesight."
