CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride relieves skeletal muscle spasm of local
origin without
interfering with muscle function. It is ineffective in muscle spasm
due to central nervous
system disease.
Cyclobenzaprine reduced or abolished skeletal muscle hyperactivity in
several animal
models. Animal studies indicate that cyclobenzaprine does not act at
the neuromuscular
junction or directly on skeletal muscle. Such studies show that
cyclobenzaprine acts
primarily within the central nervous system at brain stem as opposed
to spinal cord
