Comment:
I have multiple diagnosis that affect my muscles I get spasms, tightness and some serious pain. This medication really has done nothing to help handle these issues. I was recently prescribed Soma along with this, I use this medication to just get through the day so I can get home to take the stronger one.

I am on a low dose for chronic neck pain; had some problems with blurry vision about an hour after taking meds, but those seem to be diminishing.

Comment:
750mg twice a day, but also using Aleve (NSAID) in conjunction. I was using Aleve and Tylenol (acetaminophen) alternating every 2 hours, which actually works, but didn't alleviate the back pain/pinched nerve pain or whatever condition my doctor called it. But he nailed it with Methylprednisolone and this muscle relaxer. I am 34, and have been dealing with this condition on/off for 20 years.
