How long will flexeril appear in urine?
How long a drug stays in your blood and/or urine is usually determined by its half-life. The half-life of a drug is the time it takes your body to metabolize and excrete the medication. Flexeril has a half-life of 18 hours, so it would take 3.75 days for it to clear out of your body completely.

What food can you eat in preparation for a colonoscopy procedure?
For the colonoscopy to be thorough and safe, your bowel must be completely empty. So, to prepare for the procedure you may have to follow a clear liquid diet for one to two days beforehand. A clear liquid diet means consuming only: Fat-free bouillon or broth Strained fruit juice (No pulp) Water Plain coffee Plain tea clear soda Sometimes you may be allowed jello and popcicles. The night before the procedure, you will also take one of several types of laxatives (such as Golytely or Fleets Phospho-Soda) This is known as a bowel prep. This is done at least 12 hours ahead of the procedure and after taking this you may not take anything by mouth, not even water. I just wanted to say that your phrase about not drinking anything after taking the prep is not true or was confusing. You are encouraged to drink a lot of clear liquid after taking the prep, to help with the process. Same thing the morning of the procedure-to do the prep again. 2-3 hours before your time of arrival is when you need to stop drinking anything by mouth. Of course the day before and the early morning of (depending on when you are scheduled) you can be on liquids only, and can have Jello, just not with any red or purple dye.
How long after colonoscopy i can drink a beer?

Can you take xanbars with flexeril?
There aren't any drug interactions between xanex (street name "xanbars") and flexeril HOWEVER, it could potentially be dangerous. Xanex is a pretty powerful sedative and flexeril has a powerful sedative property (being a muscle relaxer). The "sedation" side effect of both drugs could be dangerous. My suggestion, if you MUST have both drugs, use only with a prescription for both and at least two hours a part (depending on your personal medication tolerance).
