A member asked:
What are rebound effects from muscle relaxers? some say its just pre-existing symptoms returning and others say its an increase in those symptoms?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Likely latter: Laura, I do not know a rebound effect of muscle relaxant exists but I do know that when patients take narcotics for pain for some time that they develop an addiction. When they stop taking the narcotics the previous symptom returns along with all the withdrawl which makes everything worse. Although a muscle relaxant is not a narcotic and should not be addictive, you can feel similar things.
