"I took Robaxin 750 mg for a few months after back surgery. I had no idea my surgeon was prescribing it not just for the neck spasms, but also to make tapering off of hydrocodone easier. Despite my slow taper from 60 mg daily to 5 mg, I had some intense leg cramps after stopping Norcos. Robaxin helped tremendously. Combine it with Gabapentin or Pregabalin and you'll get more relief."

"I’ve been on methadone 130 mg a day for over 10 years. No one told me just how bad methadone is. I was actually referred to the methadone clinic for Lortab withdrawals. Lord, if I only knew then what I know now!! I would have NEVER started methadone. Anyway, I’m tapering myself off methadone 5 mg a week. I’m down 15 mg and was fine the first 15 mg drop. (I think because I had so much built up in my system. Now that I’ve hit 20 mg down, I’m getting very uncomfortable. Leg cramps, not sleeping, sneezing constantly (why is that a w/d symptom lol so weird?) My husband has 3 bottles of this methocarbamol for muscle pain in his back, he hardly takes it. I’ve noticed a decent difference in leg pain and the general uncomfortable flu feeling. I hope this continues to help as I really don’t want to be dependent on anything for any longer. I’ve already given addiction 13 plus years of my life."

"Used secondarily with lucemyra. The two together are super helpful getting off suboxone (been on suboxone from 9/2022-2/2024. Used Brixadi shots to wean off films for four months. Lucemyra/methocarbamol combo addresses most symptoms for me."

"Back in 2007, I was diagnosed with leukemia. I was pretty bad off. So going through all of that, I found out that I have a lot of back problems. So for 15 years now, I've been taking 30 mgs of oxy 4 times a day and nine 10 mgs of methadone a day. So my doctor got raided by the FBI, no joke. So it's been very hard, I get no sleep, I'm in constant pain, and I'm running to the bathroom all the time. I went to the ER last night, and they gave me one of these pills. It did seem to help, I got a few hours of sleep. And that's one of the worst things for me: it's not being able to sleep. I have to say that this is worse than going through cancer. So at the ER, they told me to go to a methadone clinic. So I woke today and thought about it, but that would just put me back to the beginning of feeling like rubbish. So I'm glad I got on here to see all of your stories. So I'm going to go get my script of these, and I'm praying to God that it will help. The withdrawal from methadone is bad, I can't take feeling like this."

"Instead of this, try gabapentin for opiate withdrawal. I've tried methocarbamol, and it's okay, but it only eliminates half of the withdrawal symptoms. Now gabapentin, on the other hand, was amazing. Take gabapentin, and 4 to 6 hours later take Suboxone, then 4 hours later take gabapentin, and so on. I've been doing this for two years, and I haven't relapsed once."

"This is day one for me, and it's working fine. Still get some symptoms but not much. I have been through withdrawal two times before, and this is the easiest so far. Now this is just day one."

"Excellent for opioid withdrawal. Detoxing from heavy tramadol addiction. I was taking gabapentin as well, but with methocarbamol I really don’t need it. Excellent med."

Methocarbamol "Didn't do anything for me. Second day on it, and all it did was make my symptoms worse. Worse than just detoxing without anything."
