Is Prozac And Flexeril Contraindicated?
Hi I take prozac once a day as prescribed and I have back pain normally, so I decided to take a flexeril. I started to not feel good then I googled any interaction and found out there could be a very bad reaction, the flexeril was in me for about 20 minutes then I threw up as soon as I found out about the reaction, should I be worried?

prozac(fluoxetine )oral & flexeril (cyclobenzaprine)oral both increase affective serotinine level in blood ,too much serotonin is a potentially life thretening situation .severe signs & symptoms include high blood pressure & increase heart rate that lead to shock.
monitoring by your doctor is required.
take care.
