View Full Version : Drug info - Flexeril (Cyclobenzaprine)
Just wondering what would you all rate Flexeril. My buddy has quite a few and says they are a lot like somas. I have taken somas before and gotten straight shit faced, are these things any good compared to somas?
Also, how many would I need to take to be on a good level? I have heard they are not as strong as somas, but are still good.

hey, i was on darvocet for an neck injury for a week or so but i asked my doctor for something a lil less strong cuz i was noticing i was having too much fun with them, then they started not doing much for me at all and i was popping them like crazy,and when i wasnt on them i felt like shit (pain and depression for some reason). i asked for some muscle relaxers that i could take in the morning and at nights cuz thats when my neck pain was the worse. he gave me these cyclobenzaprine muscle relaxers and i took one last night and noticed they made me very drowsy, pretty sedated... i was wondering anyone had any info on these pills, im not even sure what classification they fall under so im sorry if this is the wrong forum. also just wondering if i can have some fun with them in any way, theyre 10mg tablets, kinda small... any replies are really appreciated...

Skeletal muscle relaxant
Description
Cyclobenzaprine (sye-kloe-BEN-za-preen) is used to help relax certain muscles in your body. It helps relieve the pain, stiffness, and discomfort caused by strains, sprains, or injuries to your muscles. However, this medicine does not take the place of rest, exercise or physical therapy, or other treatment that your doctor may recommend for your medical problem. Cyclobenzaprine acts on the central nervous system (CNS) to produce its muscle relaxant effects. Its actions on the CNS may also cause some of this medicine's side effects

Well, it's not a benzo..it doesn't have the typical diazepine + benzene ring common to all benzos.
However, Cyclobenzaprine ismore chemically akin to common tricylic anti-depressants(Imipramine, Amitriptyline, etc.) with a novel analgesic effect.
There arevery fewexperience reports at Erowid.org
As far as 'having fun with them' is concerned, check out Erowid and please watch your dosing(s). Nosense becoming a statistic when all you had in mind was a little pleasure.

Hey thanks for the quick replies! sorry, i usualy always refer to erowid but for some reason i keep forgetting about those drop down bars (pharmacueticals being one)... thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
As for the "having fun" part, im definantly gonna stay away from taking more than the recommended does since i went through some hell finding out what can go wrong with that while on the darvocets (i really lost it, they made me feel soo good but when i wasnt on them i felt very low and so i didnt want to refill my script for fear things would only get worse).
I'll probably just end up throwing back a few shots along withmy nightlypill to see if theres any kinda comfy mix i could fall back on during the rough nights of my drug court program... thanks again!

I dont like flexeril too much. It's too week for me. I tried using it for meth withdrawls, and it was okay for that. It made me relax a little, and with some pot, I was able to go to sleep. But over all, they're too weak and unsatisfying for my taste.

Nice for a night of relaxation, or to hold me over from another drug craving.
SWIM's roomate was prescribed ten 10mg flexeril for his lower back problem last december.
SWIM and his roomate each insufflated one pill, no special
modifications to the dorm room environment were made. it was maybe 5pm.
Within 20 minutes a drowsy haze settled over each of them. SWIM began
to nod in and out of consciousness, he would intend to do
something(such as pick up the remote and change the channel), nod out,
dream that he'd done it and wake up in utter confusion.
At approximately 8pm some friends called the room, SWIM's roomate
answered groggily and promtly handed the phone to SWIM, who also talked
in a detached manner. The caller must have thought he was calling an
opium den.
Soon after both drifted off to sleep, SWIM awoke feeling unrefreshed and was tired throughout most of the following day.

Flexeril, or it's generic name Cyclobenzaprine HCL is not as good as SOMA in my opinion. SOMA has a more mellow, happy type of relaxation to it, while Flexeril, to the intolerant user is extremely hard-hitting in that it knocks you on your ass and puts you into a shitty sleep. If you are used to muscle relaxers however it usually does nothing, and has to be taken at least 2-3 days in a row, 3-4 times a day to get a cumulative effect much like SSRI's. I would stick to the best: SOMA, or it's generic: Carisoprodol.
Some people say that flexiril gets you high. I have 90 10mg pills........whats the best way to get high from them?

What is it? Is that a muscle relaxer? I know I've heard of it before, might be the same thing I took a few times but I don't remember. If it is what I took I wouldn't try getting high off it I didn't enjoy it, but I'm not sure if it is. Sorry I can't be of more help

i love Flexeril, the stuff puts me in the best mood! (and when mixed with weed its great) also love it for sleep, i likearound30mg's.
i heard Flexeril was invented as an anti-depressant, does any one know of any other anti-depressent that works like Flexeril (i have been on meny and none work for me) but Flexeril puts me in the best mood!
This is hands my favourite pharmeceutical of all time. just
one 10mg pill will knock me down and nod me out like no other for
several hours.
i have very limited experience with it. i'm hoping to find more somedoday.
wow people actually like this drug? i threw it away. all it would do is make me knock out and when i wokeup id be grumpy and groggy, and OC is in NO WAY SHAPE OR FORM SECOND to flexeril
[QUOTE=Psilocybe S.]I dont like flexeril too much. It's too week for me. I tried using it for meth withdrawls
Meth withdraws?? You got to be kidding us right?Or do you mean you used them to come down off of Meth?Meth has no physical withraws,unlike caffeene or nicotene

Flexeril can be relaxing. I got a bottle of 10mg tabs after i was in a car accident for whiplash. They have a tendency to make one very tired though.
a couple warnings:
DO NOT SNORT- Burns like a motherfucker
DO NOT mix with alcohol- i had maybe 2-3 beers and i puked my guts up
Swim has disk disease in her neck and all Flexeril did for her was make her very very sleepy. She is petite so the hangover lasted a while. The first ones she got were 10 mg and the second ones, were 5 mg. Swim knows they are supposed to relax muscle spasms but they seem to do more than that. Swim doesn't relate them in any way to valium or xanax. She still has a whole bottle of Fexeril and doesn't plan on touching it unless her neck flares up bad enough and maybe not even then. Swim is prescribed Lortab 10s sometimes but would never mix that with Flexeril since both can cause drowsiness, even though Lortabs do not make swim sleepy.

I stay stocked up on the 25mg ones. I think they are great for muscle aches but recreationally theyhave no value to me whatsoever. I have no problem mixing them with Loritabs or Percocets but i have an extremely high tolerance. A friend took one with 25mg of 4-HO-Dipt and had a horrible experience, so i wouldn't recommend that.

swim is looking at some now, and in swims opinion, they lack true value as a drug of recreation...however, they are somewhat relaxing and help sleep come easier.
SWIM was prescribed some for legitimate back problems, but only tried them after the co-prescribed bottle of Norco 10/325's were gone, heh. So, what he generally noticed at recreational doses was definite centrally-acting muscle relaxation - try clinching a fist, good luck with that. Quite a bit of tingle/float in limbs, and definitely more...challenging?... movement. Not flawed or necessarily obvious, but more involving. Slight mood alteration, not really euphoric (as an opiate might be) or anxiolytic (like benzodiazepines).
Side effects: Fairly bad dry mouth, funny taste next morning. Sleep comes easily, but at your own will - not quite a knockout drug; even if you lie down in bed, you could watch a movie. He was kind of cranky the next day, unsure of the chemical cause here.
LOT less danger of OD than carisoprodol. Be careful with that one.

Swim believes this is what he was given in hospital a few times. It did make him feel pretty good sort of a glow but swim would like to try it again and maybe slightly larger dose.
what was your dose?^ swim finds cyclobenzaprine to be fairly rewarding when taken from 20-40 mg. swim has heard that snorting them is really not that bad and actually is fairly effective. has also heard of report of 200 mg dose that was like an insane trip... it causes very vivid dreams of a hazy and confusing and yet highly symbolic and important variety... definitely worth the time as far as swim is concerned... id be careful about using too much as i would go ahead and assume that withdrawal would be unpleasant... and as much is not known about the molecule who knows it could kill you if you use it way too much and cold turkey... not very likely but possible nonetheless...

SWIM 4 10mg tabs from a buddys house the other day while on 350mg of tramadol and about 150mg worth of dxm. Made him a bit more floaty and pretty much pass the f out which is abnormal for him as he's generally an all nighter, esp while on tramadol. While it took maybe 2 hours to knock him out, he dont remember one bit of the movie he watched.

SWIM has some 100 mgTrazodone(Desyrel) tabs which he wanted to use to sleep(he couldn't sleep the last few nights)SWIM doesn't have any tolerance at all and only weighs 120 lb.He heared from other ppl that used from 25 to 100 mg to sleep so SWIM used 50 mg.But after an hour he was still restlesness so he took another 50 mg.He finely fell asleep 1½ hours later.SWIM can get Flexeril as well, do you think that would have more effect?
Flexeril is a muscle relaxant. If you are having problems sleeping you might be better off seeing a doctor about things like ambien, which are used to help people sleep. Flexeril might help, but that isn't the purpose it is designed for.
i have found that flexeril is bunk by itself, but for some reason, really potentiates an opiate

I have a bad back and just got given these. Why would you snort them? I bet they do burn...but is it giving any edge at all? These things don't seem like they would work like that. I wanted some OC but both docs gave me these. Help with the back, though I can't function at all on them hardly, so...I have pain when I'm not on them, but I can't work when on them. What's the point? Ah well. They do last a long time...like 7 hours before the intense stabbing comes back.

Cyclobenzaprine (Flexeril) is, strangely enough, a tricyclic drug as well as a muscle relaxant. SWIM has had a generous amount of experience with cyclobenzaprine, albeit with lower doses save a single high-dose experience. Here's my 2 cents:
-- Flexeril does indeed "feel like something". Some muscle relaxants, such as metaxalone (Sklaxin) have very little to no "feel-drug effect", even in extremely high doses*. SWIM remembers a specific incident with a friend where SWIM and her had each taken 20 mgs cyclobenzaprine and an hour later SWIM declares out-loud "I definatly feel something, I can't put my finger on it but this is definatly cyclobenzaprine-induced". The friend didn't feel a thing and never has on the drug.
--When one goes 72 hours without eating a single bite of food, the effects of drugs taken orally are multiplied by at least 5. SWIM knows because has done just that more that 75 times (but thats another story for another day). Anyway, one night, after 75 hours without eating SWIM sublingually took 10 milligrams of cyclobenzaprine (it burns the tongue.. baad). The effects were extremely pronounced; muscle tone was greatly reduced and my body became relaxed. The tension was sucked out. There was little disruption of cognitive skills, marked sedation, and minor coordination difficulties. The effects would definatly be labled as pleasant; not euphoric like hydrocodone or amphetamine, but pleasant like Xanax or Soma. This means that, with sufficient doses, cyclobenzaprine is rewarding and/or posesses abuse potential.
--At theraputic doses, cyclobenzaprine is not rewarding but it is indeed theraputic in painful muscle conditions.
Hope this helps a little.
SWIdr has had several experiences with Flexeril, and it does definatly help relax your muscles (of course). Alone it doesnt produce much of anything (euphoria wise, that is) but it can really add to opiates and benzos. So in that case SWIY could combine them and it would probably produce SWIY's desired effects. Of course mixing CNS deppresants can be dangerous, so be extremely careful if you choose to do so!
SWIM just got some flexerils (cyclobenzaprine) from a buddy and is currently on the antidepressant effexor (venlafaxine). While doin his homework on the drugs, (theres some nasty combos that can go down with antidepressants), SWIM spotted that flexeril's mode of action is unknown, but speculated that flexeril works by increasing levels of norepinephrine. SWIM's effexor not only inhibits the reuptake of seretonin, BUT norepinephrine as well. Considering that some pretty nasty things can occur when a chemical is released in the brain in large amounts and it has no where to go (think of seretonin syndrome).. SWIM wonders if flexeril with his effexor would be a bad idea. Any past experiences or knowledge on the subject?
SWIdr is not sure, but this combo sound okay. Flexeril makes you feel good by realesing norepinephrine, while effexor just inhibits the release of it. There shouldn't be any bad reacations such as a DXM/Effexor would make. But of course SWIdr could be wrong, so keep doing research on the two drug interactions before trying flexeril.

When I said I, I meant sombody who isn't me.
SWIM was perscribes cyclobenzaprine. SWIM doesnt have any euphoria what so ever. All SWIM feels is his body is a little bit more relaxed, like getting out of a hot shower but no "Nice" "Fun" feelings what so ever.
Carisoprodol (Soma) doesnt compare in my opinion. As for SWIM Soma produces a plesurable effect and an obviously noticable change.

Last month swim took two 10 mg cyclobenzaprines(Flexeril)initially he didn't feel much but then got in the shower and just felt sort of non caring and spaced out and tired.Swim sort of fell down on the shower floor and grinned and went to sleep under the hot water for about twenty minutes.Afterwards swim had a little difficulty getting out and drying off.Swim felt pretty decent,a little like a benzo a tiny bit like carisoprodol.Swim sat down and chatted on the internet and looked at DF for a little while.Swim felt himself getting ever more tired and went to bed and woke up later that night.Not a bad substance but it sure aint hydromorphone or oxycontin!

i heard Flexeril was invented as an anti-depressant, does any one know of any other anti-depressent that works like Flexeril
Flexeril (cyclobenzaprine) is very closely related to the older tricyclic antidepressant medications. Examples of these drugs would be Elavil (amitriptyline), Tofranil (imipramine), Anafranil (clomipramine), etc.
Even though some of the tricyclic drugs possess strong sedating properties, none possess the muscle relaxing properties of cyclobenzaprine.
SWIM considers Flexeril to be quite over-rated as a recreational drug. However, SWIM has found Flexeril to be a sound chioce for treating muscle spasms, and muscle tension. ;)

Monkey has some of these for when he has siezures. He rarely has seizures though, so sometimes he takes them when he wants to get some sleep. In fact he just took a couple so he should be nodding off pretty soon. No recreational value. If he had anything of recreational value he would have taken those instead of going to sleep :)

SWIM received an overwhelming amount of 5mg flexeril. Would 10mg + some bonghits be a good combination? SWIM has heard reports of "swollen tongues" causing serious, serious issues with high doses of flexeril combined with pot.
Oddly enough, my kitten got awful panic attacks from cyclobenzaprine- he was taking it with his usual snack of hydrocodone even!
After his panic attacks, he would feel woozy and fall asleep.
Not recreational, IMO. Could be good for sleep, so long as you don't have the same paradoxical reaction that my kitten did. It should be noted that he is prone to such panic attacks.

Jesus took this with 15mg hydrocodone with no tolerance and 10mg cyclobenzaprine and two enourmous blunts. He used to party pretty hard. But shortly afterwards, he forgot to breathe and started to panic. Due to lack of oxygen from forgetting to breathe, he started hallucinating (to an extent) and feeling horribly sick. He turned pitch white and felt godawful. Jesus would not recommend this.

That's actually very interesting.
St. Christopher spent a sort-of two day binge ingesting large amounts of cyclobenzaprine and hydrocodone. He would dose about three times a day, usually killing 20-30 mg flexeril and 25-35 mg lortab. he felt pretty good during those two days; he loves a good opioid buzz. however, he was very disappointed to discover that the only effect the flexeril produced was an actual temporary lowering of his intelligence and mental sharpness. he hated this; he felt so f-ing stupid! anyone else noticed this?!

Goodness that's a high dose, but Jesus isn't the biggest guy (with a low, low tolerance to opiates, thank goodness :D ). Tell St. Christopher that too many CNS depressants can cause serious respiratory issues, as I have researched this greatly in the hopes of better understanding Jesus's near death experience.
swim got his hands on some muscle relaxers, and he needs some quick advice to see if his dog wants to use them for recreational use, there two small orange pills and the bottle said cens something or cel, swim knows there muscle relaxers swim just doesnt know if they would mix well with mary jane for a chilled out night,there a little bigger then over the counter claritin and orange stampped with a name swims to baked to read, please help if swiy's know what im talking about

flexeril is such a weak muscle-relaxent you would think this, but swim knows people that would take it over soma (swim says their crazy, but they swear by it). I was prescribed some once and didn't see how people could get recreational benefit out of it (I also didn't see how people got theraputic benifits from it either tho). They got tossed in the trash.
It should be noted that swim has heard of ppl OD'ing on this drug because the recreational effects are so subtle and thus the people taking an amount this is much larger than what is intended in therapy and in amounts that are nowhere close to what would be considered safe.
Flexeril/Cyclobenzaprine is a VERY dirty feeling drug. Its like being hit in the head with a sedative truck :)... in a really bad way too...
SWIM thinks it feels like a high dose of diphenhydramine, causing urinary retention, dry mouth, tachycardia, dry eye, and drowsyness. In SWIM's opinion, Soma is the only abuseable muscle relaxant.
swim took 1 of the flexril and it was a very drowsy stoney high swim took another an hour into and then started dazing in and out slightly but enough to realise what happened, so all in all swim had a decent time, but fell asleep and didnt wake up till 14 hours later, so i guess if your looking for a sedate evenin have at it, i dont think swim will ever pop them again

He has noticed no feelings similar to the buzz of opiates but when Swim first took 30 mg or above, he grew fairly tired. This stuff is great for getting rest but in the name of recreation there is nothing enjoyable really, and if Swiy is lookin' to party, he may find a bit of disappointment.
When my houseplants were just seedlings they learned that anything in the medicine cabinet with the sleepy face sticker was worth checking out. Any bottle with a sleepy face sticker and a traffic light sticker was gold. (Fortunately they learned to read not long thereafter and thus became able to differentiate, say, opiates from antihistamines.) Before developing a tolerance to these suckers, the seedlings spent many a party night conked out with their collective heads next to a garbage bag full of empty beer cans while rocking teenage parties carried on in the background.
In other words, cyclobenzaprine is a sleepy face and a traffic light, but once you learn to read you will open your eyes to see that you're looking at nothing but garbage.
It's not really even that hot for it's clinical purpose, though it does the job well enough that a few of the surviviing cuttings still have a stash of 15 or so doses of cyclo left for when the need hits and a more mind-bending (read: diazepam family) or sedating ( read: tizanidine) m.r. is eithe r innappropriate or unavailable.

SWIM used to get cyclobenzaprine and 3 pills (30mg) put him to sleep but caused terrible headaches. There was no recreational value that SWIM could tell.

Yea, what everyone else said. It's good for sleep. It is a skeletal muscle relaxant, so you feel a bit relaxed, but for swim it was more of just a heavy feeling rather than the opiate induced kind of relaxation.

SWIM has never been prescribed carisoprodol, however he's been prescribed several other muscle relaxants and found and out of cyclobenzaprine, methocarbamol, and a few other worthless pills, that tizanidine was the only one worth having around.

SWIM tried this once but for the love of god/allah/buddah don't try snorting this stuff 1) despite what SWIM has read about it not burning SWIM found out that it burns like hell and 2) it actually works better if you just take it normally. It just made SWIM really relaxed other than that it didn't really do much

Swim took two 10mgs one night and smoked some ganja, and didn't really feel much, it seems to work better when combined with alcohol. He does a lot of drugs though and maybe he just has a high tolerance.

Pills always seem to burn horrifically bad for swim when snorted. Personally he just prefers to swallow the damn things with some beer, besides snorting cocaine feels so much better.

According to my friend swim, when combined with alcohol, Cyclobenzaprine had an almost opiate like feeling, though without the same euphoria. It simply caused body relaxation, but did not make him sleepy or warm. Also, is ten mgs a normal dose? He did 20 his first time and the effects seemed very mild, they almost just made him feel slightly more drunk.

So if swim took a 10mg how long would he be out? He needs to go to work in 4 hours and is coming down from lots of alcohol and cocaine, and it has made him unable to sleep. Flexiril has never seemed to make him tired before though, so it may not work at all...

swim took cyclobenzaprine for about a week or two for cronic back pain. It did nothing for the pain; just knocked swim out. It wasnt worth more that a few diphenhydramine pills but more expensive... No rec use for swim what so ever and he played with the dosage. He took anywhere from 10-40mg with the same result ever time.
