A centrally acting skeletal muscle relaxant prescribed for the short-term relief of acute musculoskeletal pain and discomfort. Its mechanism involves modulation of neuronal communication in the spinal cord and brain rather than a direct effect on muscle tissue. Because of its potential for dependence and abuse, it is classified as a controlled substance in many countries.
