Does Soma 350 Slow Down Metabolism And Cause Weight Gain ?

I have fibrommyalgia and migraines. I take Soma 350 3x Day. I m also in menopause so I know my metabolism has changed from that and I ve gained some weight for that reason. But Soma must slow down your metabolism because it relaxes the muscles. Is that a side effect of Soma, weight gain?

Thanks for the query

Soma is not known to cause weight gain. Most women do gain weight post menopause. Make sure to get your thyriod profile done, ask for estrogen replacement therapy.
