Flexeril (cyclobenzaprine) is not classified as a controlled substance in the United States, and is therefore considered non-addictive by the federal government. Having said that, many patients do find the side effects (drowsiness, dizziness) desirable, and will abuse the drug to achieve a feeling of detachment. This is dangerous.

Is hydrocodone a muscle relaxer?
No. Cyclobenzaprine is a skeletal muscle relaxant chemically related to tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs) such as amitriptyline and imipramine. Under Federal law (American) a narcotic only refers to opioids (Heroin, morphine, hydromorphone, oxycodone, methadone) and cocaine. Under Canadian law a narcotic only refers to drugs classified as schedule I or schedule II controlled substances (opioids, cocaine, hallucinogens, ketamine, cannabinoids). Medically speaking only opioids are considered narcotics. Thus cyclobenzaprine is not a narcotic by legal and medical definitions.
