Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have a prescription for Flexeril 4 mg to take for occasional muscle cramps. I also have been taking a CVS chest congestion Relief DM product for coughing. Tonight I took half a flexeril after taking one of the Cvs chest congestion Relief tablets earlier this afternoon. Would this make me dizzy? I had to lay down..
Both Flexeril and Relief DM cause dizziness, sedation and drowsiness. The dizziness you experienced is due to the two medications taken together. Once you get relief chest infection, stop the relief dm as soon as possible. While taking these medications together, try not to drive or handle any machines, take adequate rest and sleep.
Hope I was able to help you Please address any more concerns Regards, Dr.Lekhmi
