Brief Answer:
Unlikely A Reaction, Not An NSAID or Aspirin.

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking!

i read your question and i understand your concern. Flexeril is a muscle relaxant and neither an Aspirin nor ans NSAID. So i am sure it won't be reactive. But keep an eye on any symptoms. And if you observe any odd symptom you should report it immediately to your doctor.

Anaphylaxis and immune hypersensitivity reactions with flexeril are very rare.

I hope it helps. Take good care of yourself and dont forget to close the discussion please.

May the odds be ever in your favour.
