It is not a favored method of dealing with rheumatic pain.

Cyclobenzaprine is a muscle relaxant and is typically used with rest, physical therapy, and other measures to relax muscles and relieve pain and discomfort caused by strains, sprains, and other muscle injuries - see the website for Flexeril. It's not really used for rheumatic pain unless something is haywire with the muscles potentially and the patient may be having pain from the muscles. Never seen it prescribed that way, though it's possible I suppose.

Can cyclobenzaprine be used to treat arthritis?

Cyclobenzaprine is a muscle relaxant primarily used to treat muscle spasms, not arthritis itself. While it may help alleviate muscle tension or spasms that can accompany arthritis, it does not address the underlying inflammation or pain associated with the condition. For arthritis, other medications such as anti-inflammatory drugs, analgesics, or disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) are more commonly prescribed. Always consult a healthcare provider for appropriate treatment options.
