Before Using This Medicine

If you are taking this medicine without a prescription, carefully read and follow any precautions on the label. For chlorzoxazone and acetaminophen combination, the following should be considered:

Allergies—Tell your doctor if you have ever had any unusual or allergic reaction to acetaminophen, chlorzoxazone, or aspirin. Also tell your health care professional if you are allergic to any other substances, such as foods, preservatives, or dyes.

Pregnancy—Although studies on birth defects with chlorzoxazone or acetaminophen have not been done in pregnant women, these medicines have not been reported to cause birth defects or other problems.

Breast-feeding—Chlorzoxazone and acetaminophen have not been shown to cause problems in nursing babies. However, acetaminophen passes into the breast milk in small amounts.

Children—Studies on this combination medicine have been done only in adult patients, and there is no specific information about its use in children. However, chlorzoxazone and acetaminophen have been tested separately in children. In effective doses, these medicines have not been shown to cause different side effects or problems in children than they do in adults.

Older adults—Many medicines have not been studied specifically in older people. Therefore, it may not be known whether they work exactly the same way they do in younger adults or if they cause different side effects or problems in older people. There is no specific information comparing use of chlorzoxazone and acetaminophen combination, or of chlorzoxazone alone, in the elderly with use in other age groups. However, acetaminophen has been tested and has not been shown to cause different side effects or problems in older people than it does in younger adults.

Other medicines—Although certain medicines should not be used together at all, in other cases two different medicines may be used together even if an interaction might occur. In these cases, your doctor may want to change the dose, or other precautions may be necessary.

  • Antidepressants, tricyclic (amitriptyline [e.g., Elavil], amoxapine [e.g., Asendin], clomipramine [e.g., Anafranil], desipramine [e.g., Pertofrane], doxepin [e.g., Sinequan], imipramine [e.g., Tofranil], nortriptyline [e.g., Aventyl], protriptyline [e.g., Vivactil], trimipramine [e.g., Surmontil]) or
  • Central nervous system (CNS) depressants (medicines that often cause drowsiness)—These medicines may add to the effects of chlorzoxazone and increase the chance of drowsiness or other side effects

Acetaminophen may interfere with the results of some medical tests. Before you have any medical tests, tell the doctor in charge if you have taken acetaminophen within the past 3 or 4 days. If possible, it is best to check with the doctor first, to find out whether this medicine may be taken during the 3 or 4 days before the test.

For diabetic patients :

  • Acetaminophen may cause false results with some blood glucose (sugar) tests. If you notice any change in your test results, or if you have any questions about this possible problem, check with your health care professional. This is especially important if your diabetes is not well-controlled.

If you think that you or anyone else may have taken an overdose of this medicine, get emergency help at once . Signs of overdose of this medicine include fast or irregular breathing and severe muscle weakness. Signs of severe acetaminophen poisoning may not appear for 2 to 4 days after the overdose is taken, but treatment to prevent liver damage or death must be started within 24 hours or less after the overdose is taken.
