Carisoprodol Drug Uses
Soma is a muscle relaxant used to relieve the pain and stiffness of muscle spasms and discomfort due to strain and sprain.
How is carisoprodol Taken
Soma is taken orally. The usual adult dosage of soma is one 350 mg tablet, three times daily and at bedtime. Usage in patients under age 12 is not recommended. It is recommended that you take Soma with food, or with milk, to minimize the likelihood that you will suffer an upset stomach as a result of taking the medication.
Warnings/Precautions
Do not take Soma if you have acute intermittent porphyria. Before taking Soma, tell your doctor if you have kidney or liver disease. You may need a lower dose or special monitoring during your therapy. It is not known whether Soma will harm an unborn baby. Do not take Soma without first talking to your doctor if you are pregnant. It is also not known whether Soma passes into breast milk. Do not take Soma without first talking to your doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby. Soma is not approved for use in children younger than 12 years of age.
Missed Dose
If you miss a Soma dose, take it as soon as remembered if it is within an hour or so. If you do not remember until later, skip the missed dose and resume your usual dosing schedule. Do not ‘double-up’ the Soma dose to catch up.
Possible Side Effects
Soma may cause dizziness, vertigo, ataxia, tremor, agitation, irritability, headache, depressive reactions, syncope, and insomnia. Allergic or idiosyncratic reactions occasionally develop. They are usually seen within the period of the first to fourth dose in patients having had no previous contact with the drug. Skin rash, erythema multiforme, pruritus, eosinophilia, and fixed drug eruption with cross reaction to meprobamate have been reported with Soma. Severe reactions have been manifested by asthmatic episodes, fever, weakness, dizziness, angioneurotic edema, smarting eyes, hypotension, and anaphylactoid shock.
Storage
Store at controlled room temperature 15°-30°C (59°-86°F). Dispense in a tight container.
Overdose
Seek emergency medical attention. Symptoms of a Soma overdose include low blood pressure (weakness, fainting, confusion), decreased breathing, and unconsciousness.

get migranes all the time. No doctor could find a pain med that would help, and I got them sometimes for a week straight. After seeing a specialist in Boston he perscribed soma.
As long as I take at least 2 and go to bed it usually works. If I take more than 3 in a day it makes me sick. It can be very addicting, so I try to watch how much I rely on it so I dont run into any problems. When I have migranes, these pills take the pain away so I no longer have migranes for days and days and days. Life saver!

I have taken Soma (Carisoprodol) for 12 years. According to the medical society, I abuse it as I take up to 10, 350mg tablets a day. They tell me it is addicting, if so, I don’t care.
Contiues …
Doctors will give me 12 extra strenght Vicodin (narcotic) a day with 4 Soma and think nothing of it. When I tell them I don’t want the Vicodin, just give me more Soma, they get spasdic.
I don’t get it. Soma may kill me, it may not, but it keeps me going without surgery and without narcotics. Therefore, if it is addictive, so be it. I am 60 years old, in pain with severe muscle spasms, doc says I need surgery, I say screw you.

Therefore I get Soma from my doctor and from anyplace that has brick walls and calls themselves a pharmacy and has a license to dispense medicine hanging on their wall. Maybe, and only just maybe, those under 40 years old maybe should be careful about taking certain drugs.
But for me, Soma works, I can function on it, so I will take it. Preferably the Medical Society, Doctors, etc. will get onboard and stop worrying about it and start worrying more about narcotics. NUFF SAID!

I have been taking carisoprodol for about 10 months now, It has helped relax the spasm I get in my back due to scoliosis, and other spinal problems that I have, If I had not been prescribed this medication I dont know how I would have been able to keep up with house hold duties and taking care of my children.

I’ve taken Soma (Carisopradol) for 16 years. It truly has helped me a lot. I was in two very serious car wrecks and had broke my back and neck. This medication is wonderful for muscle spasms and back pain. It is especially a lot of help for me when I take it late in the evening, so that when I get up in the mornings I feel less pain when I first start trying to move around.

I am currently taking this medication for a backache. In addition to this, I am having trouble turning my neck and lifting my arm without pain. This medication has been ineffective for the pain. It does cause me to get a little “fuzzy” but does nothing for the pain. (Fuzzy is not good when you have toddlers running around the home). I cannot sleep well, readjust myself when lying down or anything else.

I have significantly annoying spasms in my neck and upper back from multiple car accidents, as well as spasms in my shoulder from a sports injury. This was the first medication prescribed to me and it worked from day one. Can’t say enough about it. I do recieve cortisone shots in my shoulder in conjunction with the medication.

have fibromyalgia, if it was not for soma I would not be able to get out of bed each day. Soma gave me alot of my life back. I have found that some generic brands are less effective than others, if the tab has an A or W on it, they dont work much. I take 2 tabs 3 times a day w/ a mild pain medication.
