has anyone ever had a mood swing from taking flexeril (cyclobenzaprine)..it's a muscle relaxant. ?
I took it last night about 6pm and I know it will make me sleepy but my friend called me last night and said I was slurring my words and sounded overmedicated. All I know now is that today my mood is SO irritable, I was even saying the EFF word at my dog...I don't use bad words but every so often so this is not normal for me. Irritable is too mild a word, my mood is FOUL.

I know already that the big guns, percocet etc make me have mood swings and never predictable whether up or down. I just don't remember having it with flexeril before. note to self..don't take it anymore!

Sorry you had a bad reaction. I take the generic (cyclobenzaprine) and never has caused me any problems. I know for some people, and dosage has a large play in this, are more sensitive to this drug and it makes them high which could cause the slurring. That really sucks these meds effect your mood. Hope the feeling passes soon.
