When the dr. gave me Skelaxin instead of Soma, I talked to the pharmacist about it, and he said "in the trade" Skelaxin is called a "trash" drug. Like a placebo.

I took it and nothing happened. I prefer Soma. As to Klonopin I have taken one at night for sleep for a couple of years, and there is no problem at all. Not for me. But remember, everyone is different....you just have to try and see how it works for you.
