How Effective Is Taking CVS For Occipital Neuralgia?
I take Tizanadine (Zanaflex) 4 mg tabs. I used to use Walgreens and the pill was shaped like a diamond. I had to change pharamcies and CVS has round tablets. I suffer from occipital neuralgia, severe headaches and neurofibromatosis. When walgreens was my pharmacy the tizanadine would help me sleep off the pain. Now that the pills from CVS (round) will not relax me enough to nap. Is it possible that since the manufacter is different that its not working

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
It is just because of your psychological condition that make a big difference just because of the shape of tab.,, you have to control your thoughts try to keep your anxiety and stress level very low otherwise such symptoms are not good for your mental health, if you are comfortable with your former pill then I would advise you to insist for the same, hope this information helps you, have good day.
