Parafon forte is RX, not OTC. So is soma; from long, long experience I can tell you that parafon is better than soma because it does not cause you to feel drugged or sleepy. And it works!I keep a supply on hand at all times! Some of the newest docs don't prescribe it cause it has been used for so long it's been forgotten. that they only hear about and prescribe the new ones. Granted, there are a lot of newer muscle relaxants out there, but most of them have the tendency to make you feel groggy! Get an RX and try it!! Besides, it is much cheaper than the ones the drug reps try to push!!! Helene

I forwarded your messages to my husband at work yesterday. We paid a chiropractor $3500 yesterday for 20 sessions on a spinal decompression machine for lower back pain, a chair for excersizes he can bring home, and a few other items. I hope this helps my husband, because at the rate he's going, he won't be able to continue to work if this doesn't help. I'll let all of you know how it worked. If it doesn't work, hopefully we won't have to worry about pre-existing as he hasn't seen a medical doctor about the problem. I wanted to ask Mary Christine about parafon-forte and soma. Are these both medicines OTC, or does he need a prescrip for them? I have been coaxing my husband each time he has an episode to try to relax and not tense up, but it's hard for him not to. Thank you again for helping us out!!! As always, this site has proved invaluable. :) Wendy __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
