What Causes Dehydration While On Zanaflex?
Hello Dear the drug is centrally acting Alfa 2 agonist so major side effect is dryness of mouth so it is not due to dehydration it is due to side effect. Chew few ice cubes or drink plenty of water.If symptoms are heavy please consult your doctor he will examine and treat with alternate medicine. Take care
