RE: [TMIC] New Medication
Hi Rob - yes I take Tizanidine for spasms - up to 28mg/day - it works great but makes me sleepy even if I take 2mg. I take 2mg at noon and 12mg at bedtime and some during the night if I need it for 'jimmy legs' BERNARD BUTCHER From: Robert Pall [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, April 23, 2008 4:04 PM To: tmic-list@eskimo.com Subject: [TMIC] New Medication I just started a new drug to help relieve banding.

[TMIC] New Medication
I just started a new drug to help relieve banding. The drugs name is Tizanidine or Zanaflex. Do any of you take it or have you previously taken it. I have just started and am not up to the normal dose yet...however I am finding a noticable improvement in the banding. It is interesting that when I first started taking Lyrica I also noticed an improvement that has since not been so pronounced! Thanks! Rob in New Jersey

Re: [TMIC] New Medication
New MedicationHi Rob, I take 4 mg of Zanaflex at betime. I took a lot more than the 4 mg. when I was in the hospital and when I first came home. I had a problem at that time though as it screwed up my liver enzymes. I had to stop taking it. A different neuro started me back on it again about 6 months ago but at this lower dose. I have had my liver enzymes checked and since I'm not taking as much this time the enzymes are okay. One of the side effects is fatigue. I was supposed to take 2 mg at 6 pm and then the 4 mg at bedtime. I stopped taking it at 6 pm shortly after I started the meds as I kept falling asleep about an hour after taking it. It takes a while to get used to. I'm glad to hear that it works well for you and is giving you some relief.

Re: [TMIC] New Medication
Zanaflex was the first medication my Neuro prescribed, but he switched me to Baclofen because I was constantly tired. I hate to hear that about the Lyrica, because you are one of the reasons I was willing to give it a try. I only take 75mg every 12 hours so I still have break-through pain, but I like that it starts working in 20 minutes.

RE: [TMIC] New Medication
My Neuro said to expect weight gain from Lyrica and when asked why he said due to increased appetite. Being a little stubborn sometimes, I decided to beat the munchies and lost twelve pounds.

Re: [TMIC] New Medication
Hi, Patti... I really was worried about the weight gain but that was when I was on 150mg. Every 4 hours and now am on the same as you, 75mg every 12 hours. Not being able to move around like pre TM also attributes to the weight gain for me. Some don't seem to be bothered with weight gain at all! It does work tho and for me, also in about 20 minutes. There are times when I do too much that I need to take an additional one but not often. I sure wouldn't want to give it up. I'm happy enough with it that I really don't want to change it!
