Muscle Spasm
"I&#039;ve tried Flexeril twice in my life, once at least 6 years ago, and  the last time was in December. I&#039;d been on Carisoprodol  (generic Soma) long term (about 20 years with only about a 9 month break). December 2016 my Pain Management do and practice decided to completely stop writing Carisoprodol/Soma prescriptions for all patients. The excuse was that studies have determined that Carisoprodol/Soma only work to relieve musculoskeletal pain for up to 21 days and then have zero effect on pain. After I picked up my Flexeril, I found out that it is not recommended for long term use either, as a matter of fact, it&#039;s recommended to not be used for more than 14 days before it becomes inneffective.  But Flexeril didn&#039;t even touch me."
