Brief Answer:
Efficacy is not decreased

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,welcome to healthcare magic.
I understand your concern.
Iam Dr.Srilatha gynaecologist.
Carisoprodol is a centrally acting skeletal muscle relaxant.
In my opinion the efficacy might not decrease due to passing of urine after 2 hours of vaginal insertion.
The urinary tract and vagina are two seperate tracts.
And moreover the carisoprodol gets absorbed within 1/2 to 1 hour and its metabolites are released into blood.
So the efficacy is not effected.
Nothing to worry.Relax.
But do take the carisoprodol under medical supervision as it has abusive potential.
Hope this satisfies your query.
Feel free to discuss further.
Best regards...Dr.Srilatha
