Regular Soma 350mg does not have aspirin in it. The oldie Soma Compound does, but is rarely used anymore, since it has only 200mg of Soma per tablet.
Soma is not a good muscle relaxant for those using opiates.
It is metabolized to the old tranquilizer meprobamate which is the active compound. This is quite habit forming as well.
Soma is involved yearly in many deaths due to respiratory failure combined with opiates.
one example in detail:

3rd letter down.
With all the muscle relaxants out there, it would be prudent to choose one that does not have the characteristics of Soma IMO.
