Carisoprodol has an onset of action of ca. 30min and a duration of 4–6h. It is administered orally. Presumably, it acts by inhibiting interneuronal activity in the spinal cord and the brainstem reticular formation. Clinically effective doses are accompanied by drowsiness or dizziness; its mechanism may involve sedation.Its CNS depressant effects are additive with those of ethanol and other psychotropic agents. Carisoprodol has a low potential for drug dependence.
