1. cyclobenzaprine

   Cyclobenzaprine is a prescription medication that is used to relieve muscle spasms caused by certain conditions such as sprains, strains, or other injuries to muscles. It is a muscle relaxant that works by blocking nerve impulses (or pain sensations) sent to your brain, helping the muscles to relax and promoting healing and relief from discomfort. This medication is usually used along with rest and physical therapy. Cyclobenzaprine is not recommended for long-term use, generally not beyond a period of two to three weeks. It belongs to a class of drugs known as skeletal muscle relaxants.
