got a zanaflex prescription; wish me luck

Posted by JohnX2 on November 30, 2001, at 11:06:14


I'm starting Zanaflex (tizanidine) today which
is an anti-spasmodic dirivative of Clonodine.
Supposedly a bit weaker without as bad sedation
or anti-hypertensive side effects.

Hopefully this will alleviate my Klonopin withdrawal
as well as my tension headaches.

I also think it may act as a good atypical mood
stabilizer as it is a weak partial agonist of
the noradrenaline alpha-2 receptors. This would help
mediate firing in the stress centers of the brain.

crossing my fingers,
john
