Pisses me off when doctors emphasize the side effects of pills people need due to being in pain but NEVER consider the side effects of being in pain. As if being in pain doesn't have far reaching adverse effects on the body. This pill isn't for chronic conditions but there is nothing for chronic conditions.
Right. Same with insomnia, which effects may be hypertension and heartbeat anomolies, even if they were not prre-existing. There's no drug for chronic conditions, because no drug cures anything, though they may get some symptoms out of the way until the body/mind complex heals itself.
I have been living with severe muscle spasms for years due to several spine injuries and surgeries and also MS. My new Dr refuses to give me Valium when I need it and I trust it because it works for me. It's so frustrating. She insisted today I try this crap that I don't want because it was one of the ones that made me extremely sick years ago. I am going to probably pick the crap up since I'm going to pick up my vit D.. but highly doubt I'm gonna dare take it at all. I really like your videos because you cover so many issues the other drs don't point out. Thank you for thorough, honest information. ❤
I recently took this after sleep deprivation and a couple high stress situations to include an vehicle and identity theft while outside the country. When we returned I took it to sleep and ease back pain from an accident on the trip. The next day I was manic and full of anxiety which I normally don’t have. It took me a week to realize I was in a medical induced psychosis as I took it every night to fall asleep as my relationship was on the fritz. In addition to the complete mental breakdown induced by this drug, including panic, anxiety and obsessing, I experienced: jaw pain, loose stool, right eye vision blurred, dry mouth, tight chest, and increased heart rate. I don’t take any other medications and am in above average physical shape. I’m now coming down after not taking it for over 30hrs. It’s like I was in a mental coma/fog all of last week as I wasn’t myself at all. The good news is during the mental destruction I looked deep and realized changes I could make. It was like pharmaceutical ayahuasca.
I've used this for neck and shoulder muscle spasm and it worked great. Within three doses I was back to normal. Thanks for the advice not to take it long term. Makes sense, as always.
I feel like all doctors should be forced to try every drug personally BEFORE they are allowed to prescribe it. I'm guessing their prescriptions would change tremendously for the better!
Dear lord!! I had a panic attack just watching this video....😰 I’m scared to even touch another pill in my life .... I’m just gonna duct tape a 2x4 to my back and call it a day!!!!
I've took this for years ( off and on for back pain ) even combined ( at different times ) yet never experienced any known side effects, but it sounds like perhaps I was just lucky !
Carisopridol works so much better. It's unfortunately not prescribed much anymore because it is "addictive" and causes dependency. It's not very recreational because it causes a lot of sedation, it's hard to stay awake if you take a larger dose however in smaller doses it has very few side effects and causes some anti-anxiety effects. It's crazy how our society is so afraid of addiction, that they'd rather risk your life with a nasty drugs like Flexeril or Tramadol which have so many dangerous side effects.
@@freeflyer151 it's related to tricyclic antidepressants. I hope you haven't been taking it daily because it does have a pretty horrible withdrawal syndrome like all tricyclic antidepressants. Tbh it is BS. Tricyclic antidepressants are dangerous. That's why they aren't prescribed anymore for depression. They can cause fatal arrhythmias called QT prolongation and they also have a lot of anticholinergic effects which cause cognitive decline, overall decline in health and increased chance of death. Cyclobenzaprine is a perfect example of a drug that is prescribed because a superior drug, carisopridol, is addictive and according to the FDA, they'd rather you die or have your life ruined than possibly get a buzz off your medication or even get addicted to it. Of course addiction isn't good, but there's a simple answer to that problem. DON'T PRESCRIBE ENOUGH OF IT TO GET ADDICTED! No one should need a muscle relaxer for longer than 4-6 weeks as they are for acute injuries. Not chronic injuries.
I appreciate this info, but don't let this scare you. I have been taking this medication off and on for years and when I have low back/leg pain, it is they only thing that helps resolve the pain and more importantly, allows me to sleep. When I have a flare up, it is almost impossible to find a comfortable position to lay in, and this medication is a miracle to get me through and allow me to sleep.
I've had extreme chronic abdominal muscle spasms and this medicine works more than any type of pain medicine. I only take it once a day @ 10 mgs and it helps ease so much of my chronic pain.
Love this Dr. HE ALWAYS tells it like it is.... I was just about to take a flexeral for my back pain. Atter watching this video, - no thank you.... 🤣😂🤣
I’ve been on it for years! One before bed every night. I have thyroid disease fibromyalgia degenerative disc disease etc... side effects were Horrible!! Took me years to figure out why is my mouth dry why can’t I empty my bladder why am I sweating for no reason. Long story short, and I thank God for discovering the reasons for these symptoms. I went on vacation forgot my flexeral went through terrible withdrawals I thought I got the flu. When the withdrawals passed all of those other symptoms were gone!! I can wear sweaters again 👏👏👏👏 flexeral Is not a medicine for chronic medical issues!!! Don’t take it long term !!
Good day! Thanks for your observation. I went through the same situation like you but I m still in pain. Which medication are you taking now? Chronic pain is horrible man. Thanks
Dude I took 5 mgs for a buzz once and to relieve my severe pain and anxiety (I used to be big on mountain biking and was very irresponsible with it, had several injuries.) and it made my anxiety 10 times worse, it felt like a weird benadryl buzz mixed In with a weird Dextromethorphan buzz (robitussin), it did kind of help a bit of my pain but even then it was nothing like how a true analgesic would clear my pain, preferably a nice opioid or pints of lager. The only good thing it did was make music sound really nice, other than that it caused severe dry mouth, tiredness In a bad way, intrusive thoughts, feeling sedated yet stimulated at the same time, and just felt gross and dirty overall. it's an extremely dirty substance and I think all tricyclic antidepressants are trash, possibly some of the worst ever. I'll stick with my poppy seed tea, my krarom, my codeine tablets, my beer and my ganja. This drug actually made me never wanna experiment with new stuff ever again, which is good because by the time I tried it I had already tried just about everything. There is no way anyone could take this substance and function in public normally, you'd seem so smashed. The only 2 things I'll give it credit for is Music Enhancment and the next day I did kind of feel a mild Afterglow but also a hangover at the same time if that makes sense. Overall 2/10, probably the worst thing I ever took aside from benadryl and crystal meth. I'm serious
I took it for 2 weeks. It did what naproxen couldn’t. After that no need to take it since muscle spasms were reduced as much they were going to be. Not a miracle drug but it definitely helped.
Lately I’ve been taking this because of my anxiety after a breakup. At bedtime I’ll get tense as a ball, my muscles won’t loosen. I near instantly feel relief and sleep the night. But the next day, I get terrible loose stools. Anyone else get that side effect?
it's a fucking horrible drug lol I could tell that just from taking it twice In my entire life. Marijuana is a great drug, opium Is a great drug, Alcohol is a great drug. Cyclobenzaprine is straight garbage.

That’s not from the flexeril… if you got into a manic state that’s obviously your sleep deprivation and probably bipolar disorder
You must've definitely had mental issues prior to taking the medication.
I've used this for neck and shoulder muscle spasm and it worked great. Within three doses I was back to normal. Thanks for the advice not to take it long term. Makes sense, as always.
Undoubtedly the best explanation I've seen on the internet about cyclobenzaprine. Congratulations to the brilliant Dr Ken Landau.
Now I’m scared to take it
No one breaks it down like you do Doc, great stuff, thanks ..
I've been taking Flexeril for years, the only bad side effects I get are dry mouth and dizziness. However it works great for my muscle spasms.
I feel like all doctors should be forced to try every drug personally BEFORE they are allowed to prescribe it. I'm guessing their prescriptions would change tremendously for the better!
GREAT IDEA!
Agreed but then all of our doctors would be addicted just like patients
FORCE THEM
Obviously they don't wanna take that its a business

wen u took naproxen did your chest feel heavy or like burning feeling?
@@jasmaineseegobin8697 No. Don't mix it with caffiene though, I found out the hard way.
I love going to the hospital and being given Naprosyn and a placebo. 👍
Great info.
Thanks for this doc yur always on point. Blesss your heart I was gonna try this but no need of it's just as affective as advil
