Zanaflex (tizanidine) and Skelaxin (metaxalone) are both muscle relaxants but differ in their mechanisms and uses. Zanaflex is generally considered stronger for muscle spasticity due to its central alpha-2 adrenergic agonist action, which leads to significant muscle relaxation. Skelaxin, on the other hand, is often used for muscle spasms and has a milder sedative effect. The choice between them depends on the specific condition being treated and the patient's response to the medication.
Zanaflex is a short-acting muscle relaxer.

No, Zanaflex (tizanidine) is not an upper; it is a muscle relaxant that acts as a central alpha-2 adrenergic agonist. It is primarily used to treat muscle spasticity by decreasing muscle tone and promoting relaxation. Unlike stimulants or "uppers," Zanaflex can cause sedation and drowsiness as side effects.
