Mode of Action

Tizanidine, an alpha2-adrenergic agonist, is a centrally acting muscle relaxant structurally related to clonidine. It reduces spasticity by increasing presynaptic inhibition of motor neurons and has no direct effect on skeletal muscle, the neuromuscular junction or on monosynaptic spinal reflexes.

Interaction

Potentiates hypotensive effect of antihypertensives. Increased CNS effects with alcohol and CNS depressants. Increased bradycardia with ?-blockers and digoxin. Increased serum concentration of tizanidine with CYP1A2 inhibitors e.g. zileuton, ciprofloxacin and other fluoroquinolones, antiarrhythmics, cimetidine, famotidine, oral contraceptives, aciclovir and ticlopidine. Decreased serum concentrations of tizanidine with rifampicin. Use with caution with drugs that may prolong QT interval.
