Hi,
A while back I was reading through a forum that said not to take Zanaflex with another med. I can't find that thread now. My doc just prescribed zanaflex. Does anyone remember what you should not mix....other than the glass of wine I need after today's doc appt. Thanks |

Zanaflex is not usually used, until other muscle relaxant drugs fail. It is safe, but you must use it carefully, and be monitored closely by your doctor. An EKG before therapy is started will reveal if you have a genetic tendency to prolongation of QT. (heart rhythm issues). This issue is silent, so it must be looked for.

Thank you so much for your help! Based on what you sent I now remember the thread was talking about not taking Cipro and Zanaflex together.
You are brilliant! Thanks a bunch |
