I was recently prescribed Robaxin-750 Tablets for severe muscle spasms after a back injury. The medication has been a lifesaver in terms of pain relief and muscle relaxation, but I've also experienced some side effects that I want to share and discuss. The most noticeable side effects for me have been dizziness and drowsiness, which have impacted my daily activities. I've also had a few episodes of nausea which have been slightly uncomfortable and a metallic taste which is strange. I've made sure to discuss these with my doctor, who reassured me that these are common side effects and not cause for alarm. However, I'm curious about other people's experiences with this medication. Have any of you encountered similar issues, or perhaps some serious side effects like seizures or severe dizziness? Your insights would be very helpful for me and others going through the same thing.

I had a bad reaction to Robaxin and it caused me to have seizure symptoms. I was scared. After informing my doctor he switched me to something else. I am not sure but I think it was Soma. It's been awhile since I took the med but i can say the Soma helped me out.

Robaxin worked for me for a while but I had to stop taking it because of the dizziness. I do not need another way to get dizzy but apparently pills doing this is a thing. I switched to a different muscle relaxant and it’s been better so far.

I've been on Robaxin for a few weeks now and the dizziness is real! It's like I'm walking on a boat all the time. But the muscle relief is worth it.

After reading this, I might have to talk to my doctor about switching meds. The dizziness and drowsiness sound terrible. I had no idea this medicine could have such strong side effects.

I wish they had a version of this drug that didn't make you drowsy. I can't function at work when I take it. I'm really curious how others are managing this side effect? Do you take it at night or split the dose throughout the day? And what about driving. It is annoying because I always check with my physician to confirm but every time I get a prescription it says no driving while on this med.

I've been on Robaxin for a few days and I'm already feeling the drowsiness. It's hard to stay awake at work. Does this side effect usually go away after a while or is it something I have to deal with the whole time?

I was on Robaxin and didn’t notice any side effects. Maybe it doesn’t affect everyone the same way. It worked really well for me.

I felt like I had a constant hangover from Robaxin - the drowsiness was awful. I actually had to stop taking it because it affected my ability to do simple tasks around the house. I've now switched to something else that works better for me.
