Zanaflex and oxycodone can be used together, however, only under the close supervision of a physician. Both medications have the potential to cause severe hypo tension. Causing the blood pressure to drop dangerously low.

It's not a very good idea, I did it last night and it seemed like it was the equivelant of taking 10 of either one. I also take alprozolam also, needless to say I slept 12 hours and don't think I moved an inch. My eyes just got heavier and heavier until I could not stay awake( this happened over 30 seconds wide awake to asleep.)

Yes, you can, but be careful. Zanaflex is a muscle relaxer and will potentate the opiates(oxycodone is an opiate). But both cause respiratory depression, so mixing high quantities of both can cause death. Be careful.

Concomitant use of tizanidine and moderate or potent CYP1A2 inhibitors is contraindicated. Concomitant use of tizanidine with fluvoxamine, a potent CYP1A2 inhibitor in man, resulted in a 33-fold increase in the tizanidine AUC (plasma drug concentration-time curve) by fluvoxamine. Tizanidine is a potent sedative. It therefore has the potential, to interact with other CNS depressants. Alcohol should obviously be avoided, particularly as it can cause stomach upset.

Hydrocodone and Oxycontin contain the same active drug... oxycodone. So 10mg of Hydrocodone and 10 mg of Oxycontin have the same amount of Oxycodone (10 mg) in them. The only difference is that the Hydrocodone contains Tylenol in addition to the Oxycodone. So on the Hydrocodone bottle it might say something like 10/500. So the Hyrocodone in that instance has 10 mg of oxycodone and 500mg of Tylenol.
