A member asked:

Would flexeril (cyclobenzaprine hcl) be ok to take teeth clenching, trouble breathing, trouble asleep?

Self medicating : Is not a good idea. Flexeril (cyclobenzaprine hcl) is a good muscle relaxant but is not indicated to treat / prevent bruxism or clenching. Please see your dentist to have an oral appliance made to help the problem. There are many different types of devices these days. Hope this helps and thanks for your question.

teeth clenching: A professional hard night guard made by your dentist is the best thing for clenching at night. It should protect your teeth and tmj, and alleviate pain.
