Muscle relaxers that are not benzodiazepines include cyclobenzaprine, carisoprodol, and tizanidine. These medications work by different mechanisms to relieve muscle spasms and discomfort. Cyclobenzaprine is often used for short-term relief of muscle spasm due to acute conditions, while tizanidine is commonly prescribed for muscle spasticity. Unlike benzodiazepines, these drugs do not primarily target the GABA receptors in the brain.
