Have been advised to take medications as previously prescribed before epidural the are tizanadine muscle relaxant as needed and nortriptyline My back is very tight now.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

All of these medications can potentially cause dizziness and drowsiness to there is an increased risk of these side effects occurring with the use of these medications.

In addition there is also an increased risk of difficulty concentrating.

If you are going to bed, it is possible that these effects would not have any significant effect on you.

I hope this helps
