For Muscle Spasm "I was given this while living in the Philippines as a combo med with Acetaminophen. It worked better than any pain medicine I had ever used without the side effects of stomach upset (Ibuprofen) or fatigue, sleepiness (codeine)."

For Muscle Spasm "A pharmacist gave me Brufen tablets to take during the day and Norflex at night. I took one tablet of Norflex before bed, only to wake up in the middle of the night in pain again, and it felt worse. I decided to take another tablet so that I could sleep again, but two hours later, I woke up with the urge to go to the bathroom. I laid there paralyzed, and it felt like my brain was swimming in my skull. I couldn't even speak to warn my partner about how I was feeling. Eventually, I rolled onto my side, grabbing the wall next to my bed to help me get up. It's been 11 hours since I took the last pill, and I am still feeling the effects of it. The effects I experienced so far with it are dry mouth, unbalanced, confused, difficulty with speech, very sleepy, and being paralyzed."
