Drug Details
Tizanidine, marketed as Zanaflex, is a medication used to alleviate muscle spasms and stiffness, which can be caused by conditions such as multiple sclerosis or spinal cord injuries. It is taken orally, usually three times a day. Tizanidine functions as a muscle relaxant by acting as an alpha-2 adrenergic receptor agonist. This action helps slow down the nerves in the spinal column that manage muscle tone, resulting in muscle relaxation. Although not classified as a controlled substance, users should be aware of potential side effects like low blood pressure, dry mouth, and drowsiness. Tizanidine is available in both branded and generic tablet and capsule forms. Always consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new medication.
