What is Soma 350 mg?

Soma 350mg, also known by its generic name carisoprodol, is used for the treatment of musculoskeletal pain. It is converted into meprobamate in the body. It is meant to be used when accompanied by physical therapy, rest, and other methods in which muscles are made to relax after strains, sprains, or muscle injuries. It is made in the form of a tablet which is generally white and round. It may have a mild odor and a bitter taste. Soma 350 mg is slightly soluble in water and freely soluble in alcohol. This medicine is only for short-term use as it is not meant to treat chronic or long-lasting pain. It should be used for two to three weeks. Generally, acute and painful musculoskeletal pain does not last for a long duration.

How does Soma 350 mg work?

Soma 350 mg contains carisoprodol which is a Schedule IV controlled substance. It works by affecting the communication in the central nervous system. Muscle relaxation brought about by Soma 350mg is attributed to the fact that it changes interneuronal activity in the spinal cord. It is a sedative that affects the central nervous system. It interrupts the communication between nerves and alters the sensations of pain, thus producing muscle relaxation and relief from pain.
