I was prescribed Zanaflex 2mg Capsules for muscle spasms caused by my spinal cord injury. I've heard mixed reviews about the side effects, and I'm curious to know if anyone else has experienced any severe issues. The leaflet lists some serious side effects like confusion, hallucinations, and even signs of liver problems. I've been hesitant to start the medication because of these potential risks. Has anyone had a positive experience with this medication? How long did it take to notice any side effects?

I was on Zanaflex for a while and it helped with my muscle spasms, but the drowsiness was insane. I felt like a zombie all the time. I had to switch to something else. The doctor didn’t take me seriously and said everyone gets that.

I had a bad reaction to Zanaflex. I broke out in hives and had trouble breathing. I went to the ER and they told me I was having an allergic reaction. Never taking that stuff again.

Zanaflex gave me hallucinations after a week. I went to the ER and they told me to stop taking it immediately. Scary stuff, be careful.

I've been on Zanaflex for a few months now, and it's been a lifesaver for my MS spasms. The only side effects I've noticed are some dizziness and drowsiness.

I've been taking Zanaflex for about a year now, and I've had no issues. It works great for my muscle spasms. I take it at night so the dizziness isn’t a problem.

I've only had dry mouth and dizziness. It's bearable, but I wish the dizziness would go away. Should I be concerned

Dry mouth is the worst. Carry lots of water, it helped me a lot.
