My friend gave me some pills that have a seashell thing on them. They are white. And round and that's all. NOthing on the other side. The seashell is engraved in the pill. It's for my neck ache he said. I need to know before I take it. I twisted my neck bad and can barely move it. Thx.

Can you tell me if the seashell looks like this? If not, then we will probably need a photo.

Hello.this is some

Hello.

this is some information gathered from www.wallsrx.com

Carisoprodol tablets

What are carisoprodol tablets?
CARISOPRODOL (Rela®, Soma®) is a muscle relaxant. Carisoprodol is used to relieve muscle spasms and pains associated with acute injuries. It should only be used for a short time and should be combined with rest, physcial therapy or other non-drug therapies. Generic carisoprodol tablets are available.

of course only your doctor can best advise you of the medicine that is right for your condition, however, carisoprpdol is very helpful in relieveing many types of pains; most commonly muscle, and mulsce-skeletol pain.

that being said this pill could be effective for neck (as well as other) types of pain.


all thoughts and opinions expressed are those of my own and should not be mistaken for medical advice. i am not a doctor nor a pharmacist. all medical questions should be answered by a licensed pharmacist, doctor, or primary care manager.

Thx. That's what I needed

Thx. That's what I needed to know. I won't take any pill unless I'm sure what it is. I'm grateful for the id and the info.

It's helping. I took 1 Carisoprodol pill with 1 asprin. I'm being careful and not turning my head at all. My dr. is seeing me tomorrow and I'll tell him about the new pill.
