Chlorzoxazone is a centrally-acting muscle relaxant used to treat muscle spasms and pain caused by strains, sprains, or other muscle injuries. It is classified as a central nervous system (CNS) drug and is available in both generic and brand-name formulations. Chlorzoxazone works by blocking nerve impulses that cause muscle spasms and pain. It is typically taken orally, but can also be administered intravenously. Common side effects include drowsiness, dizziness, and headache. Chlorzoxazone is widely used in the United States and is available in many countries around the world. It is typically prescribed for short-term use, as long-term use can lead to dependence and addiction. It is also important to note that chlorzoxazone should not be used in combination with other CNS drugs, as this can lead to serious side effects. Some companies that produce chlorzoxazone include Mylan Pharmaceuticals, Teva Pharmaceuticals, and Sun Pharmaceuticals. Show Less Read more
