Suggest Treatment For Degenerative Arthritis While On Cyclobenzaprine

I am 7 foot and weight 220. I have degenerative arthritis and bone spurs on my back bone in which the doc prescribed me cyclobenzaprine. My back was hurting so I took two instead of one because one wasn t even helping, is that allright. I was wondering because I have a very high medicine tolerance and given my hieght and weight if it was ok.

Hi,

Consult an orthopedician and get evaluated.

It has got nothing to do with Cyclobenzaprine.

If the knee and hip are affected, you can consider arthroplasty.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
