Overview:

Carisoprodol
(when available)

Pharmacology and use:
Carisoprodol is used as a skeletal muscle relaxant. One of its metabolites, meprobamate, is available as an anxiolytic agent. For the relief of discomfort associated with acute, painful, musculoskeletal conditions

Mechanism Of Action:
Rather than acting directly on skeletal muscle, carisoprodol interrupts neuronal communication within the reticular formation and spinal cord, resulting in sedation and alteration in pain perception.
