Indicações terapêuticas:

Cyclobenzaprine HCl tablets USP are indicated as an adjunct to rest and physical therapy for relief of muscle spasm associated with acute, painful musculoskeletal conditions. Improvement is manifested by relief of muscle spasm and its associated signs and symptoms, namely, pain, tenderness, limitation of motion, and restriction in activities of daily living. Cyclobenzaprine HCl should be used only for short periods (up to two or three weeks) because adequate evidence of effectiveness for more prolonged use is not available and because muscle spasm associated with acute, painful musculoskeletal conditions is generally of short duration and specific therapy for longer periods is seldom warranted.   Cyclobenzaprine HCl has not been found effective in the treatment of spasticity associated with cerebral or spinal cord disease, or in children with cerebral palsy. Hypersensitivity to any component of this product. Concomitant use of monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors or within 14 days after their discontinuation. H

CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Cyclobenzaprine HCl 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
