Why Soma Is Prescribed
Soma is used, along with rest, physical therapy, and
other measures, for the relief of acute, painful muscle strains and
spasms.
Most important facts about Soma:
Soma alone will not heal your muscles. You need to follow
the program of physical therapy, rest, or exercise that your doctor
prescribes. Do not attempt any more physical activity than your doctor
recommends, even though Soma temporarily makes it seem feasible.
How should you take Soma:
Take Soma exactly as prescribed by your doctor. --If
you miss a dose...Take it as soon as you remember if only an hour or
so has passed. If you do not remember until later, skip the dose you
missed and go back to your regular schedule. Do not take 2 doses at
once. --Storage instructions...Store at room temperature in a tightly
closed container.
Recommended Soma dosage:
ADULTS The usual dosage of Soma is one 350-milligram tablet, taken
3 times daily and at bedtime. CHILDREN The safety and effectiveness
of this drug have not been established in children under 12 years of
age.
