cyclobenzaprine

Generic Name: cyclobenzaprine (sye kloe BEN za preen)
Brand Names: Flexeril

What is cyclobenzaprine?

Cyclobenzaprine is a muscle relaxant. It works by blocking nerve impulses (or pain sensations) that are sent to your brain.

Cyclobenzaprine is used to treat pain, tenderness, and limited motion caused by muscle spasms. This medication is used together with rest and physical therapy for short-term treatment (2 to 3 weeks).

Cyclobenzaprine may also be used for purposes other than those listed in this medication guide.

What is the most important information I should know about cyclobenzaprine?

Do not take cyclobenzaprine if you have used an MAO inhibitor such as isocarboxazid (Marplan), tranylcypromine (Parnate), phenelzine (Nardil), or selegiline (Eldepryl, Emsam) within the past 14 days. Serious, life-threatening side effects can occur if you take cyclobenzaprine before the MAO inhibitor has cleared from your body.

You should not take cyclobenzaprine if you have recently had a heart attack, or if you have a heart rhythm disorder, congestive heart failure, heart block, or an overactive thyroid.

Do not stop taking cyclobenzaprine suddenly if you have been taking it for longer than 1 week. Stopping suddenly may cause nausea, headache and general discomfort.

Avoid drinking alcohol, which can increase some of the side effects of cyclobenzaprine. Cyclobenzaprine can cause side effects that may impair your thinking or reactions. Be careful if you drive or do anything that requires you to be awake and alert.

What should I discuss with my doctor before taking cyclobenzaprine?

Do not take cyclobenzaprine if you have used an MAO inhibitor such as isocarboxazid (Marplan), tranylcypromine (Parnate), phenelzine (Nardil), or selegiline (Eldepryl, Emsam) within the past 14 days. Serious, life-threatening side effects can occur if you take cyclobenzaprine before the MAO inhibitor has cleared from your body. Do not use cyclobenzaprine if you have recently had a heart attack, or if you have:
  • a heart rhythm disorder;

  • congestive heart failure;

  • heart block; or

  • an overactive thyroid.

Before using this medication, tell your doctor if you have:

  • problems with urination;

  • enlarged prostate;

  • glaucoma; or

  • liver disease.

If you have any of these conditions, you may not be able to use cyclobenzaprine, or you may need a dosage adjustment or special tests during treatment.

FDA pregnancy category B. This medication is not expected to be harmful to an unborn baby. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant during treatment. It is not known whether cyclobenzaprine passes into breast milk or if it could harm a nursing baby. Do not use this medication without telling your doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby. Do not give this medication to a child younger than 12 years old.

Older adults may be more sensitive to the side effects of this medication.

How should I take cyclobenzaprine?

Take this medication exactly as it was prescribed for you. Do not take the medication in larger amounts, or take it for longer than recommended by your doctor.

Take each dose with a full glass of water.

This medication is usually taken three times each day for a period of 2 to 3 weeks. Do not use cyclobenzaprine for longer than 3 weeks unless your doctor has told you to.

Do not stop taking cyclobenzaprine suddenly if you have been taking it for longer than 1 week. Stopping suddenly may cause nausea, headache and general discomfort.

This medication can cause you to have unusual results with certain medical tests. Tell any doctor who treats you that you are using cyclobenzaprine.

Store cyclobenzaprine at room temperature away from moisture and heat.

What happens if I miss a dose?

Take the missed dose as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and take the medicine at the next regularly scheduled time. Do not take extra medicine to make up the missed dose.

What happens if I overdose?

Seek emergency medical attention if you think you have used too much of this medicine. An overdose of cyclobenzaprine can be fatal.

Symptoms of a cyclobenzaprine overdose may include drowsiness, fast heartbeat, tremors or shaking, slurred speech, confusion, nausea, vomiting, hallucinations (seeing things), chest pain, or seizure (convulsions).

What should I avoid while taking cyclobenzaprine?

Cyclobenzaprine can cause side effects that may impair your thinking or reactions. Be careful if you drive or do anything that requires you to be awake and alert.

Avoid using other medicines that make you sleepy (such as cold medicine, pain medication, muscle relaxers, and medicine for seizures, depression or anxiety). They can add to sleepiness caused by cyclobenzaprine.

Avoid drinking alcohol, which can increase some of the side effects of cyclobenzaprine.
