Will Taking Flexeril Or Cyclobenzaprine Along With Ultram And Oxycodone For A-fib Cause Problems?

Can flexeril or cyclobenzaprine, cause problems with my a-fib which is caused by a leaking heart valve. I take Ultram(150mg) per day. Also I take 15mg of Oxycodone twice a month. Will any of this interact with the flexeril I have just been prescribed? It has been given to me for a large area of my muscles are spastic.

hi.
cyclobenzaprine and ultram do interact with each other, both increase sedation through central effect. ultram and oxycodone have same action. I don't see any need of either of ultra or oxydone combined. in fact I would go for alternate spasmolytic like zanaflex if it is to be used with ultram or oxycodone.
hope its clear now.
