Soma

What do I need to know about Soma?
You must use caution when driving an automobile, operating machinery, or performing other kinds of hazardous or strenuous activities. For some, Soma may cause dizziness or drowsiness. If dizziness or drowsiness is experienced, it is best to avoid dangerous or strenuous activities entirely. Use alcohol with caution since it may increase drowsiness and dizziness while you are using Soma.

What is Soma?
Soma is a muscle relaxant. It works by blocking nerve impulses (or pain sensations) that are sent to your brain. It also reduces substances in the body that cause pain and inflammation. Soma is normally used in conjunction with rest and physical therapy, to treat injuries and other painful muscular conditions. Soma may also be used for purposes other than those listed here.

Who should not take Soma?
Avoid Soma if you have acute intermittent porphyria. Before taking Soma, inform your doctor if you have or have had kidney or liver disease. You may need a lower dose or need to be specially monitored during your therapy. o Do not take Soma without first talking to your doctor if you are pregnant since it is not yet known whether Soma will harm an unborn baby.. o Do not take Soma without first consulting your doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby since it has not been confirmed whether Soma passes into breast milk. o Soma is not approved for use in children younger than 12 years of age.

How should I take Soma?
Follow your doctor's directions when taking Soma. If you do not understand these directions, ask your pharmacist, nurse, or doctor to explain them to you. o Take each dose with a full glass of water. The maximum amount of Soma you should take in one day is 4 tablets or 1,400 mg. Store Soma at room temperature away from moisture and heat.

What happens if I miss a dose?
You should take the missed dose as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the dose you missed and take only your next regularly scheduled dose. Avoid taking a double dose of this medication. Try to keep your doses at least 4 hours apart.

What happens if I overdose?
If you think you have inadvertently overdosed, seek emergency medical attention immediately. o Symptoms of a Soma overdose include low blood pressure which results in weakness, fainting or confusion. Further symptoms are decreased breathing and unconsciousness.
