A member asked:

Is carisoprodol still prescribed?

Carisoprodol, commonly know by the brand name Soma, is still commonly prescribed in the U.S. It is a schedule IV controlled substance in the United States because of its potential for dependence and abuse.

NOT HERE. This is a drug of potential abuse and metabolizes to "Miltown", a recreational drug of the '60s. It interacts adjunctively with sedatives and opioids. In my opinion, it should fully be removed from the market across the globe. There is NO rationale to ever prescribe it.
