I was just wondering if anyone out there has ever abused zanaflex. I am ashamed to admit I did. I was just so desperate to sleep at night. One or two wasn't cutting it so I started going up to 6, 7, or 8 at I time. I would never ever recommend this for anyone. It was just my own desperation and stupidity. I have always had giant tolerances to everything. Anyway, this stuff would put me down hard, it was hard to get up and walk myself to the bathroom and the other thing was the vivid hallucinations, i have never experienced anything like it before. Everything I was seeing was so real it was scary and I would even see people and hold conversations with them. In the morning i would be completely fine. Thankfully i am in treatment for addiction now to various other substances. I just never heard a story about this from anyone else, it was just so crazy. en-us Copyright 2009 Prescription Drug Info All Rights Reserved. 11/21/2009 1:04:35 PM 20 http://www.PrescriptionDrug-Info.com/threads/Abuse-of-zanaflex-D75395_s2.htm#177842 <a href="http://www.PrescriptionDrug-Info.com/Drugs/Zanaflex.asp" target="Zanaflex.asp">Zanaflex</a> contains the active ingredient <a href="http://www.PrescriptionDrug-Info.com/Drugs/Tizanidine.asp" target="Tizanidine.asp">Tizanidine,</a> this is a muscle relaxant. <br> <br>Unfortunately, yes, these are commonly abused by many people, because of some of the effects you both have described here. <br> <br>Like any other drug, abuse carries the risk of serious issues, including possible fatal ones. <br> <br>Kudos to you for getting help. <br> <br>Common side effects can include: nausea, drowsiness, dizziness and headache. <br> <br>You can read more here: <br> <a href="http://www.prescriptiondrug-info.com/drug_details.asp?title=Zanaflex&page=1002332&ad=true" target="W95313P04I"><br>http://www.prescriptiondrug-info.com/drug_details.asp?title=Zanaflex&page=1002332&ad=true</a> <br> <br>Does anyone have any questions?
