2008-02-29T06:56:00.000-08:00

A muscle relaxant and is a drug which affects skeletal muscle function and decreases the muscle tone. It may be used to alleviate symptoms such as muscle spasm and pain, and hyperreflexia. The term "muscle relaxant" is used to refer to two major therapeutic groups: neuromuscular blockersspasmolytics. Neuromuscular blockers act by interfering with transmission at the neuromuscular end plate and have no CNS activity. They are often used during surgical procedures and in intensive care and emergency medicine to cause paralysis. Spasmolytics, also known as "centrally-acting" muscle relaxants, are used to alleviate muscle skeletal pain and spasms and to reduce spasticity in a variety of neurological conditions. While both neuromuscular blockers and spasmolytics are often grouped together as muscle relaxants, the term is commonly used to refer to spasmolytics only.

Students Use Muscle Relaxant to Get High

A growing number of teens are misusing the prescription muscle relaxant Soma to get high, CBS News reported June 2.

"Some students are crushing it up and snorting it," said Mesa Police Sgt. Sean Kelly in Arizona. "They're also mixing it with alcohol. "

In Mesa recently, 29 students were suspended for possessing the drug. A 16-year-old girl was arrested for smuggling 3,000 Soma pills across the border from Mexico and distributing them at five schools.

"They're really cheap, especially down in Mexico, and everybody's got them," said one student.

Mike Salazar, a drug counselor in Arizona, said Soma is part of a national trend toward mixing prescription and over-the-counter drugs to get high. "If [youths] have access to the medicine cabinet, that's what they're going to mix together," Salazar said.
