Orphenadrine Citrate ER Tips from Pharmacists

• Orphenadrine citrate ER (long-acting tablets) contains medicine that is released slowly in the body over time. Do not cut, crush, or chew the extended release tablets. This can cause a large amount of medicine to be released all at once.

• Side effects of orphenadrine such as dizziness, drowsiness, and blurry vision can put you at risk of injuries and accidents. Do not drive or perform other potentially hazardous activities until you know how this medicine affects you.

• Avoid drinking alcoholic beverages while on orphenadrine. Alcohol can make the side effects of this medicine worse.
