Norflex (active ingredient: orphenadrine) is a prescription medication used to help relieve muscle spasms caused by acute musculoskeletal conditions, such as muscle strains, sprains, or other painful muscle injuries.

Muscle Spasms

Norflex is used as part of a treatment plan to reduce muscle stiffness, tightness, and discomfort. It may help improve movement and make daily activities more comfortable while the affected muscles heal.

Norflex is often used along with rest, physical therapy, stretching, or other treatments recommended by a healthcare provider.

How Norflex Works

Norflex belongs to a class of medications called skeletal muscle relaxants. It works by affecting signals in the nervous system that contribute to muscle tightness and spasms.

By helping reduce muscle spasms, Norflex may improve comfort, decrease pain, and increase range of motion. It should be taken exactly as prescribed by a healthcare provider.

Norflex is taken by mouth as an extended-release (ER) tablet, exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider. It is used to help relieve muscle spasms associated with acute musculoskeletal conditions.

Swallow the tablet whole with a full glass of water. Do not crush, chew, split, or cut the tablet. Norflex extended-release tablets are designed to release the medication slowly over time. If the tablet is broken or crushed, too much medication may be released at once, which can increase the risk of side effects and may prevent the medication from working for the intended length of time.

Recommended Dosage

The usual adult dose of Norflex for muscle spasms is 100 mg by mouth twice daily.

Your healthcare provider may adjust your treatment plan based on your age, medical condition, response to therapy, and whether you experience side effects. Always follow the exact directions on your prescription label.

Taking Norflex Safely

Take Norflex at the same times each day to help maintain a steady level of medication in your body. Do not take more tablets than prescribed, and do not take the medication more often than directed. Taking extra doses will not improve muscle spasms faster and may increase the risk of side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth, blurred vision, or confusion.

Important Reminder

Norflex is usually used along with other measures such as rest, physical therapy, stretching, or other treatments recommended by your healthcare provider. If your symptoms do not improve, worsen, or return after treatment, contact your healthcare provider for further evaluation.

Before taking Norflex, tell your healthcare provider about your medical history, especially if you are 65 years of age or older, have heart problems, or take other medications that can cause drowsiness.

Drowsiness and Blurred Vision

Norflex may cause drowsiness, dizziness, tiredness, or blurred vision. Until you know how the medication affects you, avoid driving, operating machinery, or doing activities that require clear vision, alertness, or coordination.

Alcohol and Other Sedating Medications

Avoid drinking alcohol while taking Norflex. Alcohol can increase the risk and severity of side effects such as drowsiness, dizziness, confusion, and impaired coordination.

Also tell your healthcare provider if you take other medications that can cause sleepiness, such as sleep aids, anxiety medications, opioid pain relievers, certain allergy medications, or other muscle relaxants. Taking these with Norflex may make sedation worse.

Older Adults

People aged 65 years and older may be more sensitive to the side effects of orphenadrine, including drowsiness, confusion, dry mouth, blurred vision, constipation, and difficulty urinating. Older adults may need closer monitoring or a different treatment option.

Do Not Stop Long-Term Use Without Advice

If you have been taking Norflex for a long time, talk to your healthcare provider before stopping it. Your provider can guide you on the safest way to stop or adjust your medication if needed.

Heart-Related Symptoms

Norflex may cause a faster heartbeat or may worsen certain heart-related symptoms in some people. Contact your healthcare provider if you notice a rapid or irregular heartbeat, chest discomfort, shortness of breath, dizziness, or worsening of an existing heart condition.

Your healthcare provider may recommend a safer alternative if Norflex is not appropriate for you.

How should Norflex be taken?

Norflex should be taken exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider. It is usually taken by mouth as an extended-release tablet. Do not take more than the recommended dose or use it more often than directed, as this may increase the risk of side effects. Swallow the tablet whole with water. Do not crush, chew, split, or cut the tablet unless your healthcare provider tells you to do so.

Can Norflex interact with other medications?

Yes. Norflex can interact with certain medications, especially those that affect the central nervous system or cause drowsiness. These may include other muscle relaxants, sleep medications, anxiety medications, opioid pain relievers, some allergy medications, and other sedating drugs. Before starting Norflex, tell your healthcare provider about all prescription medications, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and supplements you are taking. This helps reduce the risk of drug interactions and side effects.

Can you drink alcohol with Norflex?

It is best to avoid alcohol while taking Norflex. Norflex may cause drowsiness, dizziness, and reduced alertness, and alcohol can make these effects worse. Avoid driving, operating machinery, or doing activities that require focus until you know how the medication affects you.

Can you take orphenadrine during pregnancy or while breastfeeding?

If you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, talk to your healthcare provider before taking Norflex. It is not fully known whether orphenadrine can harm an unborn baby, affect breast milk production, or pass into breast milk. Your healthcare provider can help weigh the potential benefits and risks and may recommend a safer alternative if needed.
