Thanks for the responses.

I didn't take any last night, and I slept through the night. So a phone call to my Doctor is in order on Tuesday.

I have taken it....but only at night. It really zonks me out! I take robaxin (methocarbamol) every day without any bad side effects. :D

yes...recently. I took one pill and slept 15 hrs. Was loopy all day - drugged feeling - nothing accomplished. Didn't take the 2nd nite...got better. Took 1/2 pill the 3rd night and slept 12 hours. I have too much to do to sleep all the time!

I took a flexeril once and could hardly get off the bed to go to work. Holy smoke!!

I take flexeril once in a while for muscle spasm. It makes me VERY sleepy so I always sleep for several hours if I take it and then feel groggy all day, but when I have a muscle spasm in my back and can't move, I don't care! One pill and a heating pad and when I finally wake up, it's gone, so it's worth it to me. Good thing I don't have to take it very often.

wow, I guess I'm just weird... Flexeril has no effect on me... no loopiness, no muscle relaxation, nothing.

i've taken generic flexeril - no problems - sure helped spasms in back - didn't put me 'out of it' at all.
