A member asked:
Can a doctor prescribe me carisoprodol for my severe back pain and muscle spasm?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sure, why not?: That's what it's for. Course, some docs will refuse because carisoprodol is converted in the liver into meprobamate aka Miltown. Ever hear of it? It was really the first big benzodiazepine. Back in the 60s it had the nickname "Mother's Little Helper." It was so widely used the Rolling Stones even wrote a song about it. (The song was called "Mother's Little Helper.") Good luck with this.
