Is it safe to take lexapro and flexeril together?

Answer 1

Motrin, which is ibuprofen, and Flexural, which is a muscle relaxer, can be taken together with rarely any side effects. You should contact your doctor or pharmacist to be sure it's safe for you.

Answer 2

Sometimes these are prescribed together however they are both CNS/Respiratory depressants. This means they can have a synergistic effect and cause Respiratory failure and even death if not closely monitored. Please consult a doctor before attempting to take these two drugs together. The result could be serious depending on a number of factors.

Answer 4

Propoxyphene is a relatively weak opioid pain medication. It is typically combined with acetaminophen in the form of Darvocet. Being an opioid, propoxyphene can cause side effects including lightheadedness and sedation.

Flexeril is a muscle relaxer that also very commonly causes sedation. There is controversy as to whether these medications do anything but make you sleep.

Because of the potential additive effects of these medications, sedation will most likely occur. Taken in normal doses, the sedation should only make you sleepy. You should not perform any activity which requires that you be alert, including driving.

If you take higher than normal doses, you may experience excessive sedation. Especially if mixed with alcohol, respiratory depression may occur.

Answer 7

Actually, the two have been known to cause serotonin syndrome. I wouldn't take them together from my experience. They made me very jittery and unable to sleep.

Answer 8

According to my pharmacist, it isn't recommended to take flexeril with Prozac. He said there was no apparent problem with Valium and Prozac.
