I just got Dysport for the first time. I read that you shouldn't take muscle relaxers with Dysport. What are the complications of this? I take Soma for tension headaches.

Muscle relaxers with dysport
Before I would make a definitive answer, I would make sure that your other medical history would not interfere with having dysport injections. The muscle relaxers work totally different than the properties of neurotoxins.

Dysport/botox and muscle relaxers
There should be no interaction between your muscle relaxer and your dysport or botox injection. You can safely use both.

Muscle Relaxers and Dysport
There should be no problem with muscle relaxers for tension headaches after Dysport. The mechanism of action is different.

Dysport and oral muscle relaxers
The method of action of the two medications is different. If you are taking Soma and have no effect on the muscles where the Dysport is going to be injected, then there should not be any problem.
