BRAND NAME: Soma. USES: Carisoprodol is used together with rest and physical therapy for the short-term relief of acute painful muscle and skeletal conditions in adults. It is only used for 2 to 3 weeks. Carisoprodol is not a controlled substance.
Soma for me is not that strong, but stronger than Flexeril. I would take 2 350mg pills at a time with Soma. I have to take 3 Flexeril to even feel a tiny bit of relief.And even then it just puts me to sleep. Soma will make you feel sort of drunk if you take a lot of it.hese will work much better than Skelaxin which in my opinion is the Baby of the Muscle relaxer meds. It is wise to stay on an anit-inflammatory like Motrin but you might want to try 800mg Ibuphropen (sp) Also. I would tell your Doc that the pain reliever is not working and request something stronger.
