Both of these drugs are Skeletal muscle relaxants Soma (Carisoprodol) & Robaxin (Methocarbamol) usually prescribed for muscle pain caused by sprains/strains. Soma has a high abuse potential and is stronger than Robaxin. *west ward 209 is Robaxin (Methocarboamol)*
Not exactly, they are both classified as muscle relaxants, however they have two different chemicals. Robaxin is methocarbamol, and Soma is carisoprodol. They both have different side effects.
"soma" is just an old word for body, but if you google [soma] you'll get 20 definitions.
carisoprodol (Soma), chlorphenesin (Maolate), chlorzoxazone (Paraflex), cyclobenzaprine (Flexeril), diazepam (Valium), metaxalone (Skelaxin), methocarbamol (Robaxin), and orphenadrine (Norflex)
If your Doctor doesn't belive you have muscle spasms , ask for more diagnostic tests and evaluation by a rehabilitational specialist. They will have you perform tests that will induce verifiable spasms.
Soma is a muscle relaxant legitimately prescribed to relieve pain from muscle injuries and spasms. It works by blocking pain sensations between the nerves and the brain. Soma is used together with rest and physical therapy to treat injuries and other painful musculoskeletal conditions.
Yes, Soma relaxes muscles and relieves pain and discomfort associated with strains, sprains, spasms or other muscle injuries. Muscle relaxes are for specific muscle injury and pain and should not be used for general body aches and pains. Soma may cause dizziness, vertigo, ataxia, tremor, agitation, irritability, headache, depressive reactions, syncope, and insomnia. SO please consult your doctor before taking Soma as this is a prescription drug.
soma was made by a womens store called chicos and they sell bras thongs underware pajamas lingirie and intimates. I agree there is a company called soma selling lingirie, but when the question is asked in Medicine section, they are definitely talking about the medicine Soma. Soma relaxes muscles and relieves pain and discomfort associated with strains, sprains, spasms or other muscle injuries. Muscle relaxes are for specific muscle injury and pain and should not be used for general body aches and pains.

The heart is a muscle. Soma is a muscle relaxer. Do the math ;-)
Yes it is a class IV narcotic as of Jan. 12, 2012 For what reason I do not understand ? It was the only thing that worked for my muscle spasms ! Now I have been cut off !
it's more of a depressant than a muscle relaxer Answer #2: Ativan CAN be used as a muscle relaxant, but it would be very uncommon for a doctor to prescribe it specifically for this as there are better options in the "muscle relaxant" category that have much less addictive potential (Flexeril, Zanaflex, Robaxin, Skelaxin, Soma, etc.). That being said, Ativan is one of the benzodiazepines that DOES possess all of the intrinsic properties of benzos: anxiolytic, anticonvulsant, sedative-hypnotic, amnesic, and yes-- muscle relaxant. A sixth intrinsic property primarily attributed to Ativan that has recently been coined among the benzos is it's effectiveness as an "antiemetic"-- it decreases nausea. Only Ativan and Versed can lay claim to all six properties.
I don't see a problem with it. Percocet is a pain pill and robaxin is a muscle relaxer. When I went to the doctor the other day, I was taking a soma (a very similar muscle relaxer) and a percocet together. Then he prescribed me robaxin. I'll probably end up taking a percocet with it. But if you want to be 100% sure, ask your doctor.
