Description
Pain O Soma (Carisoprodol, Soma) is a muscle relaxer that blocks pain sensations between the nerves and the brain. Soma is used together with rest and physical therapy to treat skeletal muscle conditions such as pain or injury. Soma works by blocking pain sensations between the nerves and the brain. This effectively works for the treatment of musculoskeletal symptoms when coupled with rest and physical therapy. The medication can be used to treat other conditions. For more information, consult with your physician or pharmacist.
How should I take Soma?
Take Soma exactly as it was prescribed for you. Follow all directions on your prescription label and read all medication guides or instruction sheets.
Soma is usually taken 3 times per day and at bedtime. Follow your doctor’s dosing instructions very carefully.
Soma should be taken only 2 or 3 weeks. Call your doctor if your symptoms do not improve, or if they get worse.
Do not stop using carisoprodol suddenly after long-term use, or you could have unpleasant withdrawal symptoms. Ask your doctor how to safely stop using this medicine.
