About injectables, I don't know, but when I was taking Flexeril pills (cyclobenzaprine) for my back I had no trouble.

The short version is: muscle relaxants relax muscular tissue. Erections occur in erectile tissue. These are different things, so one shouldn't directly affect the other.

The disclaimer is: no personal experience with this situation.

yes, muscles have nothing to do with erection. subjective sensory "feeling" is optional as well. completely and permanently paralyzed people still have erections.
