Is It Okay To Take Robaxin Tonight With Armour Thyroid?

I have been Armour Thyroid 3 grain for several years and recently (December) started taking metformin 500mg /extended release three times per day. I had a Discectomy at L3/4/5 about fifteen years ago which was wonderfully successful. Every once in a while I will have some muscle/pain issues in my lower back when I do something stupid or do too much. Normally I take up to three 500mg Robaxin and Advil until I can get to the chiropractor and may continue for another day. Rarely do I take it for three days. And I never thought to ask the pharmacist about this when I picked up the metformin because I only need to take the Robaxin two or three times per year. Is it okay to take the Robaxin tonight so I can get some sleep? Would it be best to skip the Advil with it?

Hi,

There is no contraindication to have robaxin or advil, as you are taking it occasionally and not on regular basis.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
