CARISOPRODOL vs METAXALONE

Just found Pancrealipase St! I also unabashedly call every “Soma” store carisoprodol and profess it as part of the holy trinity. Any one else have some hilarious “Pharmacy in Real Life” pictures/stories?

I see an MD prescribing his wife controlled substance (Carisoprodol) and it has been dispensed six times before (Husband was the prescriber) but during covid-19 state of emergency. should I refuse because I don’t feel this is right

I'm a new graduate working for a retail company. A few weeks ago we had a meeting about dispensing narcotics in general. One of the pharmacists there mentioned that some DEA officers audited his store. While there they mentioned that the combination of narcotic pain releaver, Soma (carisoprodol), an

Since Soma happens to be the brand name for carisoprodol in the US, I was curious if there was any relation to the fictional drug, soma, from Brave New World.

I have a question for those of you practicing or pretty much anyone who can offer any advice. I am a P1 and don't know that much. I'll try to keep this short. My mother has multiple prescriptions from multiple doctors. I am not sure if they interact with each other or not BUT my main concern is that

9 months ago, about a week after getting laid off from a well-paying job that I loved and two weeks after my fiancee/girlfriend of 5+ years left me, I messed up my back. I was around 320 pounds and I picked my daughter up out of her crib. Felt a pop, herniated disc. At that point I looked in the mir

So I am an alcoholic, 10-12 beers a day, every day for many years. Over the past two months I have cut my drinking down to 2-3 times per week, but still put away 10-12 beers per session. As of this post, have not had a drink in 2 days. My doctor prescribed me Naltrexone, 50mg, and I've taken it
