It is a muscle relaxant and yes a prescription is required. It is not a controlled medication so that shouldn't be a problem. I had it for a strained back but refused to take it after the second day. It made me groggy and the feeling on waking up in the morning was similar to having a hangover. But everyone reacts differently.

Flexeral is a muscle relaxer used to ease pain. My husband has a pinched nerve in his neck from a car accident and his doctor gives that to him every now and then. Yes you need a prescription. Medications affect everyone differently.

Learning more about the treatment of fibromyalgia will make living with fibromyalgia much easier.In addition to this, it will make the process of diagnosis and treatment much less confusing for you.
There are a number of other treatments and medications that your doctor may recommend. Two common medications that your doctor may prescribe on an as needed basis would be Ambien and Flexeril. Ambien is a sleep aid that is used to help you during times when your sleep pattern disturbances are particularly bothersome. Flexeril is a muscle relaxant that is prescribed to relieve muscle pain and muscle spasms. In addition to these, medications doctors usually suggest treatments like physical therapy, massage therapy, chiropractic manipulation, and acupuncture. Your best chance for fibromyalgic pain relief is to use a combination of medication and therapy.

It is a muscle relaxer used for muscle sprains and strains. It makes me feel like crap; very fuzzy headed and I don't mean in a pleasant way. You do need a prescription for it in the US.

flexeril is used for reducing inflammation in muscles due to injury. Personally it worked great when I had back spasms. And yes I believe you can only get these through a docs prescription.

Flexeril is a muscle relaxer. I was prescribed those. They relax the muscles all right, but your brain too. I woke up feeling fuzzy headed, like hungover. Since Im in recovery for the past year, that's the last feeling I wanted to experience ever again. That's only me though,. it may be different for you, your weight, etc. Be careful cuz they knock me on my butt!
