Has anyone taken this, for back pain & muscle spasm?

I've taken this the last two days, and I've had wretched acid reflux, heartburn & nausea.
I'm obviously going to stop taking this medication, to see if this is the problem and/or what's causing those symptoms.

Has anyone else had an experience with this medication?

    I've taken Robaxacet before and never had any issues. I'm assuming Robaxisal is the same thing just with a different base ingredient (acetomenaphen vs ibuprofen)
  • I think that's the same thing as Robaxin. My dog actually had to take Robaxin for back problems on and off for a couple years, as a muscle relaxer. She did fine on it, but then again, she's a dog and can't really complain specifically.

    I, as a human, though, have taken Flexeril for chronic lower back pain. It's a muscle relaxer. I took it initially when the injury happened (along with hydrocodone, sp?). I still take it intermittently whenever my back is hurting more than normal just to relax the muscles and give them a break. It works pretty well and I never had any side effects besides sleepiness. Definitely don't want to drive while taking it.
