I take Tizanidine, 8mgs at bedtime. It makes me really sleepy, but helps a lot with the muscle spasms. My rheumy did tell me of a new drug out for muscle spasms. You take it in the morning and it releases throughout the day. I guess it's only a few months old though and therefore is very expensive. I tried Lyrica, but it made me very ill. I was only on it for 4 days and they immediately took me off- because of what it was doing to me. All the drugs I take are: Hydroco/APAP, 5-500mg tab (1 every 4-6 hours) Mobic- take generic- Meloxicam, 15mg (1/day) Effexor XR, 150mgs (1/day) Xanax- take generic- Alprazolam, 0.5mg (1/day) Zestoretic- take genereric- Lisinop HCTZ, 20-12.5 (1/day) Tizanidine, 4mgs (2 at bed-time) Ambien CR, 12.5mg (1 pm) Midrin (prn) Imitrex, 100mgs (prn- dosage is 1/day, 2prn) Lybrel (birth control to stop periods- anemic) Vitamin B2 Riboflavin, 400mgs (1/day) Ultra Preventative III (vitamin supplement) Magnesium Glycinate (supplement) "When you feel like giving up, remember why you held on for so long in the first place." ~Unknown |
