Tonmya (cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride) is a sublingual formulation of cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride for the treatment of pain associated with fibromyalgia.

Fibromyalgia is a common chronic pain condition thought to result from amplified sensory and pain signaling within the central nervous system. Symptoms include chronic widespread pain, non-restorative sleep, fatigue, and brain fog (or cognitive dysfunction).
Cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride is thought to improve the non-restorative sleep characteristic of fibromyalgia through potent binding and antagonist activities at four different post-synaptic neuroreceptor subtypes: serotonergic-5-HT_2A, adrenergic-α₁, histaminergic-H₁, and muscarinic-M₁-cholinergic receptors.
Cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride was first approved in 1977 for the relief of skeletal muscle spasm. Cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride has been approved under the brand names Flexeril (5 mg and 10 mg tablets) and Amrix (15 mg and 30 mg extended release capsules) and generics.
Tonmya is a new rapidly-disintegrating, sublingual formulation of cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride 2.8 mg designed for bedtime dosing to target disturbed sleep in fibromyalgia patients, while reducing the risk of daytime somnolence. It is is based on a eutectic formulation of cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride and mannitol that provides a stable product which dissolves rapidly and delivers cyclobenzaprine efficiently into the bloodstream.
Clinical pharmacokinetic studies indicated that relative to oral cyclobenzaprine formulations, Tonmya provides a rapid onset of action, avoids first-pass hepatic metabolism, and reduces the formation of norcyclobenzaprine (nCBP), a long-lived active metabolite which is associated with unfavorable side effects.
TNX-102 SL is also being studied as a treatment for PTSD, alcohol use disorder, acute stress disorder, and agitation in Alzheimer’s disease (AAD).
