User Reviews for orphenadrine citrate oral

After a month of taking orphenadrine I noticed side effects which I thought were normal, until I started unintentionally holding my breath. After reading through drug information, I found that 3 side effects (including trouble breathing) on the “signs of overdose” list. I called my prescribing physician and reported these conditions and asked if the pill is available in a lower dose. Even though the prescription packaging advises to swallow whole, do not cut, chew, or crush, he said I should cut it in half. Today I read that cutting the time released pills will increase risk of side effects. What the heck?!?! Do I argue with my Doctor, or possibly forget about exhaling, seeing clearly, and using the restroom? Seems like a fun choice. Read More Read Less

Norflex is good it's the only medication i have found that has cleared up my migraines but when i take it i become so forgetful. Orphenadrine 100mg should be put in the schedule 5 my memory was obliterated,

I have Fibro, 2 auto immune's, 5 genetic disorders and a host of other things wrong with me. I have been almost bedridden for 11yrs now. I stay in a flare 24/7 365 days. My muscles from the base of my neck, through my shoulders, my whole back is hard as a rock. I have lower spasms which turns into full body spasms. Last month I had to go to the ER because it wouldnt release, I was in this for 5 1/2 hrs. They gave me a cocktail of meds Orpenadrine citrate 100mg er was one. My pain level has went from a 10+ to a 5. No side effects for me. Just great pain relief.Read More Read Less

I have anxiety already and taking this drug has caused restlessness and jumpiness. It also causes my legs to constantly jiggle- ie restless legs-bad. This also causes the pain I am already suffering to be worse.

muscle spasms in neck and left arm

rhomboid muscle spasm. Relieved spasm. Taken as 450 acetaminophen and 35 mg orphenadrine x 2 as "Anarex."

Severe muscle spasms post op after 3rd surgeryof my left foot.

Great Not invasive product

Didn't relieve spasms as thought, but did help some to avoid painkillers.

This was prescribed to me for back strain. After 3 doses, still no relief. Going back to Dr today. Also given naproxen 500 and norco 7.5/325. Both of those made me sick to my stomach.

Works great for my back muscle spasms but has given me anxiety attacks and vivid dreams.
