I was on cyclobenzaprine (sp?) for 2-3 years; it also seemed to help me to sleep; and then skelaxin(sp?) longterm, post-injury; plus an 800 mg. Rx ibuprofen, 1 x ea. 8 hrs ( = 3 per day/2400 mg total daily; 3200, if severe pain) and no other pain meds. I still take the 800 mg. Rx ibuprofen, as needed. (The 800 mg. Rx works better, much moreso highly effective for me than the 200 mg tabs, e.g. from Wal-Mart --- and cheaper (!) also than the 200 mg. generic, like Wal-Mart, or Dollar General, etc. variety.)
