Can you take tizanidine for a toothache?

No, tizanidine should not be taken for a toothache as it is not indicated for treating pain.

Tizanidine is a muscle relaxant and is primarily used to manage muscle spasms; hence its usage should be restricted to these indications only. For pain management, you should instead reach out to analgesics and NSAIDs that specifically tackle pain sensations. In case of a toothache, seek an evaluation and treatment plan from a dentist. Self-medication using non-indicated drugs may worsen the underlying cause of toothache and result in other potentially life-threatening complications.
