I don't know how many of you take tizanidine for muscle spasms, but I discovered an interesting fact. I cross checked this with my pharmacist to be sure.
Tizanidine has in it a reaction with caffeine that releases a great deal of the drug at once particularly in tablet form. It explained to me why my morning cup of coffee was knocking me for a loop.
I always thought it was the tizanidine that was making me sleepy, but it appears to be the 2 cups of coffee releasing all of it at once.
Thought this might be helpful for some of you,
