does anybody know what cyclobespan is?

Question

i found a bottle of pills in my sons backpack, he told me hey were his friends sleeping medication it this true?

Answer 1

I am not sure, but I dont think so. Why would he keep his friend's sleeping medication in his backpack? Ask his friend about it and see what answer he gives you.
Thanks.

Answer 2

Why does he have his friend’s pills? And were they in a prescription bottle? If so it should have the friend’s name and when to take the medication (at bedtime). If not, I'm even more concerned.

I searched for cyclobespan and could not find it. This could be how the name sounds, but may be spelled very differently. The best way to find out what the pills are is to take them to a pharmacy and have the pharmacist tell you what the pills are and what they are used for.

This is NOT perfect, but here is a website to identify prescription drugs by name (if you have it), imprint (letters or numbers on the pill), shape and color.

The shape may be hard to choose (like oblong vs. oval). Try different shapes, or don’t put in any shape and see if you find it.

Once you see this same pill, click on the pill name to get a list of similar pills, select one and see what it is used for.

Take care and good luck!

Answer 3

Do you mean Cyclobenzaprine?

If yes, this is a muscle relaxant - used to treat chronic pain, sprains, muscular injuries, stiffness, that sort of thing generally. It's not a narcotic or sleeping medication as such, but as a central nervous system depressant it can make users drowsy, or a bit out of it. Depends on the doseage.

It is prescription only, and normally prescribed in comination with some sort of physical therapy or physiotherapy (for an injury perhaps) but this is not always the case. If they had been supplied by prescription this information would be on a label stuck on the bottle.

It's not widely abused - in comparison with other drugs about it's effects are pretty mild, which doesn't make it that appealing. But having said that, recreational abuse does occur, it is usually called "cyclone" and if taken in high enough doses can induce what are said to be pleasant sedation and floating sensations, loss of co-ordination and disorientation. Risk of addiction is low.

Depending on how old your son is, I'd call him on it - hang on to the tablets and tell them you'll give them back to your friend on condition he show you his prescription - if he can't then give them to his folks. Could be kosher, but then again....

Answer 4

Attempting to search for this drug I came up with nothing. You might go to the pharmacy and ask there or call them up and ask. Just tell them how you found the pills and see if they can tell you what they are. If its a prescription call the pharmacy on the bottle.
