Important Information
SOMA (carisoprodol) is approved for the relief of discomfort associated with acute, painful musculoskeletal conditions such as backache. SOMA should be used for short periods (up to two to three weeks). It has not been shown to work when taken for longer periods.
Most common side effects of SOMA include drowsiness, dizziness, and headache.
Since SOMA may cause drowsiness and/or dizziness in some patients, make sure you know how you respond to SOMA before engaging in potentially hazardous tasks, like driving an automobile or operating machinery.
While taking SOMA, avoid alcoholic beverages or other drugs that may make you drowsy or dizzy, such as antihistamines, tranquilizers, and sedatives.
Make sure your doctor is aware of all the other drugs you may be taking, regardless of whether these are prescription or nonprescription.
Only your doctor can tell if SOMA is right for you. SOMA is available by prescription only.
