If you have ever been sick, you may have gone to the doctor and he prescribed you medicine. Usually, you have to go to a pharmacy to get the medicine. At the pharmacy, the pharmacist or someone working for the pharmacy will give you advice and information about taking this medicine.

Sometimes, the information is written on the medicine bottle or bag. There are always certain things to do and not do when it comes to taking medication. First, you should never drink alcohol with your medication no matter what.

Also, if you are taking Methocarbamol or Robaxin due to physical therapy, you will not want to take any type of cold medicine because the Methocarbamol may not work like it is supposed to.

The use of a cold or allergy medicine will lessen the side effects of the medication.

Methocarbamol is a muscle relaxant. Medicines such as cold or allergy medicine. sedatives. narcotic pain medicine. sleeping pills. muscle relaxers. and medicine for seizures. depression. or anxiety add to the sleepiness caused by methocarbamol.
