Skelaxin (active ingredient: metaxalone) is a prescription medication indicated for:

  • Muscle Spasms: Skelaxin is used for the relief of acute, painful musculoskeletal conditions associated with muscle spasms, such as strains, sprains, and other musculoskeletal injuries.

Skelaxin belongs to a class of drugs known as skeletal muscle relaxants, which works by affecting the central nervous system to relieve muscle spasms and associated pain without directly affecting muscle function.

Metaxalone is an oral tablet medication used as a muscle relaxant for acute musculoskeletal pain. It is generally taken three to four times per day as prescribed by a doctor, and should be taken according to the prescribed dosage, frequency, and duration. Carefully follow the instructions on the prescription label and seek clarification from a healthcare professional if there is any confusion.

The recommended dosage of Metaxalone for adults and children over 12 years of age is one 800 mg tablet three to four times a day.
