Carisoprodol, sold under the brand name Soma among others, is a medication used for musculoskeletal pain.[4] Use is only approved for up to three weeks.[4] Effects generally begin within half an hour and last for up to six hours.[4] It is taken orally.[4]

Common side effects include headache, dizziness, and sleepiness.[4] Serious side effect may include addiction, allergic reactions, and seizures.[4] In people with a sulfa allergy certain formulations may result in problems.[4] Safety during pregnancy and breastfeeding is not clear.[4][5] How it works is not clear.[4] Some of its effects are believed to occur following being converted into meprobamate.[4]

Carisoprodol was approved for medical use in the United States in 1959.[4] Its approval in the European Union was withdrawn in 2008.[6] It is available as a generic medication.[4] In 2019, it was the 343rd most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with more than 800 thousand prescriptions.[7] In the United States, it is a Schedule IV controlled substance.[4]
