Respuesta :

Cyclobenzaprine is a drug that produce an anticholinergic response in the body, which means that is blocks neurotransmitters from the nervous system to prevent things like muscle spasms. but due to the neurotransmitters being blocked, it can cause these kinds of side effects because the brain can no longer control these things.
