@pb50 Flexeril or clobenzaprine was not discontinued but its use has severely decreased due to its drug classification as benzodiazepine.

I was led to believe when I specifically asked the surgeon for Flexoril that the brand drug is no longer available but a generic formulation - cyclobenzadrine - is. So that’s what I received. And it is a great drug for those who don’t have addictive physiology and/or personality. And not so much for those who do. And you can’t tell beforehand who has what tendencies. But since I took it after back surgery in the 80’s, we both felt comfortable with me taking it.
