I am currently on 40 mg cyclobenzaprine daily for back spasms. Would (heavy) drinking be advisable considering the meds? I know it's suggested you don't, but they also suggest you don't exceed 4 doses of cough syrup in 24 hours. Just wondering if anyone had personal experience with this.
 
I wouldn't get to excessive with the alcohol.. Flexeril and a few beers isn't going to kill you, but "heavy drinking" could cause some nasty interactions... hell, if *you* describe it as "heavy drinking" I would guess that means "really, insane, psychotic alcoholism, heavy drinking" .. I think the warning is really more of a caution, but I guess we will find out soon enough, 'eh?
