Years ago, it was suggested that I take Baclofen for my spasticity disorder.
However, I had an adverse reaction & my father took me off the meds pretty soon thereafter.
My issues from the drug (thankfully) were not permanent, but based on what I know now, I would advise anyone NOT to use Baclofen. There are plenty of muscle relaxant/anti-spasticity meds that are quite a bit safer than Baclofen.

I'm glad that your dad took you off of that. It seems like some doctors just give you more medicine to combat the side effects, which doesn't solve anything.

Well I will keep that in mind, and that's good he took you off it when he did

I used Baclofen but haven’t in awhile, the one I had a reaction against was Neurotin though!
