Muscle Spasm
"I take Soma as an adjunct therapy to pain medications for fibromyalgia.  I&#039;m 34 now - but have been prescribed Soma off and on for six years.  As others have also posted, I too was prescribed Flexeril, Robaxin, Zanaflex, Skelexin, Parafon Forte, etc. Most of those were marginally helpful, if at all. Soma is the only muscle relaxant medicine that actually works.  Not only does it truly &quot;relax&quot; the tension and knots in my muscles, but can throw the brakes on a tension headache, work as a sleep aid, and lower the need for opioids with very few side effects. I would recommend this medicine to anyone.  Cheers."
