Default Skelaxin

Oh boy what a med. Started on it yesterday and woke in the middle of the night vomiting and coming from the other end too. I was sicker that a dog. Has anybody else experienced this.

I haven't taken skelaxin, but I have tried other drugs like it, with much the same result. If you're having that rough a time with it, I'd definitely go back to the doc who prescribed it and ask for something else. Medicines are supposed to make you feel better, not worse!

Good luck, Razzle!

I take skelaxin and it has been a wonder drug for me. I tried flexeril and was in a stupor till it wore off but with skelaxin I get relief without the dopey feeling. I tried several different muscle relaxers before this one so sometimes it is trial and error. Hope your feeling better by now...Sue
