What are the effects of gabapentin and Darvocet together?

Cyclobenzaprine is a muscle relaxant that most noticeably causes drowsiness. It can also cause you to feel somewhat 'relaxed,' but this is a very mild high at best. Darvocet can also causes drowsiness, as well as several more desirable side effects. Basically the cyclobenzaprine is going to put you to sleep. I personally would skip the cyclone and just go with the Darvocet. No one likes getting a good dopey high going only to pass out a half hour later.


Can you take naproxen and darvon?

Yes you can take these two together. Darvocet is a mild opiate and Naproxen is an anti-inflammitory. These will actually work well if taken together. Stay away from Tylenol (Acetametaphin) when taking Darvocet since Darvocet already contains Acetmetaphin.

What is the difference between hydrocodone and Darvocet?

Hydrocodone is an opiate (meaning it's a derivative of opium), I believe. Darvocet is an Opiod, which means it's synthetic and made to chemically mimic the effects (especially painkilling properties) of other opiates. To my knowledge, Hydrocodone is more potent than Darvocet and is a schedule 3 controlled substance-Darvocet is schedule 4. The smaller the number, the higher the abuse potential. Hope that helped.
