soma is the best muscle relaxer on the market

Overall
Rated 5 out of 5

I have been taking Soma for about twenty five years.  I take it for muscle spasms in my lower back.  I was hit by a car while crossing the street, and a drunk driver hit me.  I could not walk for two weeks while in the hospital.  The spasms are very painful and cause me to walk hunched over.  I can not function at home or at work unless I take the Soma. The cons of taking Soma are few.  It causes drowsiness and you can not drink alcohol while taking it.  It can be habit forming. It is not recommended that you drive while using Soma.  I have not experienced any of these side effects and I am able to be employed when taking this medication.  It can not be taken when you are pregnant or if you are nursing. I think the pros outweigh the cons with this medication.  If you experience painful spasms anywhere in your body, I recommend you contact your doctor and discuss this with him or her.  All in all, I think this is a great medication for muscle spasms!

Soma is like a Xanax for the body.

Overall
Rated 5 out of 5

Soma, also known as the generic name Caprisodol, is a muscle relaxer precribed for short term use.  I started using Soma for a condition called Costochondritis, a painful inflammation of the rib cage.  The samples from the doctor were 250 milligram tablets, and they saved me a trip to the emergency room.  This could be one of two reasons:  either a), it relaxed me enough that my muscles were constricted from pain, or b), I was too relaxed to care.  Either way, Soma has helped me a great deal.  The only shocker was that the 250 milligram tablets costs a whopping $350.00 dollars for a 90 day supply!  (This is with no prescription insurance).  The good ne...
