Lightbulb Zanaflex is related to clonidine...

which is used for blood pressure and some other neuro things (addiction control).

In about 30% of patients it may lower blood pressure like clonidine, and if stopped suddenly may cause a rebound increased blood pressure.

There are some drug interactions with it:

In general many of the patients I know found it useful, but very strong as well.
Often they were headache people.. neck occipital types.
