That is a muscle relaxant so not sure how it would help. I would try prednisolone to be honest, if it was head trauma it will help it if it is something rare like a viral induced immume mediated menigitis it may help as well. You would also have more benefit from valium then you would methocarbomol. Just my opinion.
