A physician writes a prescription for a patient with fibromyalgia. Unfortunately, the drug is not written legibly, so the pharmacy technician must call back to confirm the prescription.What type of drug is most likely being prescribed?

Muscle relaxants, such as cyclobenzaprine, may be prescribed to help ease muscle pain and improve sleep in people with fibromyalgia. Steroids and immunosuppressants are not typical treatments for fibromyalgia, and a nutritional supplement is less likely to be the prescription described. The best answer is a muscle relaxant.
