Guide To Cyclobenzaprine

Common Dosage Recommendations

As it is a prescription medication, patients must follow the directions that their doctor provides. The instructions can vary, since patients may need cyclobenzaprine for various reasons, are taking it in different forms, or their condition does not respond to the same dose as another individual. However, doctors will often use general guidelines when they are prescribing this medication to their patients. Adults taking the extended-release capsule often start with fifteen milligrams a day to relax stiff muscles. However, some of them will need thirty milligrams daily. Depending on the patient, this can be one capsule with the whole dose or two capsules of fifteen milligrams. If patients are taking regular tablets, a good guideline is ten milligrams three times daily. This dose can be larger, but should not exceed sixty milligrams a day.
