A review of available studies supports a role for muscle relaxants in the treatment of painful musculoskeletal disorders. The utility of these drugs is limited by sedation and other side effects, as well as by the potential for abuse and dependency. Other drugs can also be used in the treatment of muscle spasm, specifically diazepam, baclofen, dantrolene sodium, and quinine sulfate. The pharmacology of the muscle relaxants and these other agents is discussed and practical suggestions for use are offered.
对现有研究的综述支持肌肉松弛剂在治疗疼痛性肌肉骨骼疾病中的作用。这些药物的效用受到镇静作用和其他副作用的限制，以及滥用和成瘾的可能性。其他药物也可用于治疗肌肉痉挛，特别是地西泮、巴氯芬、丹曲林钠和硫酸奎宁。本文讨论了肌肉松弛剂和其他药物的药理学，并提供了实际的使用建议。
