Dear Maureen:
This is only one person's opinion but...RUN, DO NOT WALK AWAY FROM ZANAFLEX!
My neuro gave it to me about a year ago, and it made me feel disoriented,
depressed, anxious - like nothing was worth doing or living. I stayed on it
for three weeks, then chucked it in favor of good ol' baclofen (which I
stayed on in conjunction with the Zanaflex) I learned later that Z is
another drug that was developed to treat mood disorders (like Elavil) and
was found to have the side-affect of reducing spasms. Maybe it'll work for
some of you, but for me...Yuck!
