My doctor has had me on this combination for a month now. I take 5/325 percocet with 8mg zanaflex for neck/shoulder strain/spasms. I can't do much while taking these doses together so I stick to taking them together at night when I go to bed. During the day time I stick to just the zanaflex.
I would not recommend it. Zanaflex has a side-effect of causing sleepiness, and Ambien is a sleep aid itself. I recommend that you discuss this with a pharmacist or with your doctor before taking these drugs together.
