Hello,
The mentioned muscle relaxant is having stomach upset as a side effect. So her stomach cramps and pain could be due to that. Temporary it can be stopped due to side effects. Over the counter, available antacid can be prescribed for a week.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
