Baclofen, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), is widely used to manage multiple sclerosis (MS) pain and spinal cord injuries [–]. It is widely prescribed to manage pain, enhance recovery, and prevent complications caused by injuries [, ]. However, the widespread use of baclofen may lead to a number of adverse side effects, including cardiovascular risks, gastrointestinal issues, and musculoskeletal issues. In this section, we will explore some of the potential risks associated with using baclofen to manage MS pain.
Baclofen is a medication that belongs to the muscle relaxant class of drugs called muscle spasticity medications. It works by blocking the muscle’s nerve impulses to relax, which can lead to muscle weakness, rigidity, and involuntary muscle contractions [, ]. Baclofen is also often used for muscle spasticity, which involves muscle contractions and involuntary contractions, which are common symptoms of MS.
Several factors can influence the risk of baclofen misuse, including:
The dosage of baclofen varies depending on the patient’s age, the condition being treated, and their response to the medication. Typically, the recommended dosage for adults is typically 20 mg once a day. It is important to note that the dosage may be adjusted according to the individual’s response and tolerance to the medication. For some patients, the initial dose may be gradually increased to a maximum of 40 mg daily. Dosages in the range of 20–40 mg per day may be prescribed depending on the individual’s tolerance and response to the medication.
The typical dosage of baclofen for MS is 20 mg once a day. However, some patients may require lower doses due to their tolerance and/or their need to take multiple doses per day. It is important to follow the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare professional and do not exceed the recommended dose.

The dosage of baclofen is determined by the severity of the condition being treated and the patient’s response to the medication.

It is important to follow the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare professional and to do not exceed the recommended dose.
The typical starting dose of baclofen for MS is 20 mg, which can be gradually increased to a maximum of 40 mg daily depending on the individual’s tolerance and response to the medication.
I have been prescribed baclofen for severe spasticity of the hand due to a tendon injury. I have tried other alternatives and have suffered for over 3 months. I have taken a few tablets and have been able to return to the activities of daily living. I am now a full-time employee at my job and have been in the company for a year. I was given the baclofen by my employer but it is not the same as the medication I am now. I have had to take the medication for 2 days in a row which I am currently taking. I am having trouble with the baclofen. I also take the medication as prescribed and have had the tablets prescribed and have taken them all in the past. I am now in the company and have been doing all that I can to help me get back on my feet and walk around in the morning without any of the side effects. My baclofen has not made much difference and I do have to be careful when taking it. I have been taking this medication for a couple of months but have had to stop taking it because of the side effects. I am now going through some of the side effects and have started the baclofen medication again. I am now thinking about writing this up and would be interested in any further information about this. Thanks.
I am in the process of learning to live with the effects of baclofen. I am taking baclofen 2mg a day for 4 weeks, as prescribed. My doctor prescribed it for me but I have been taking it since my first day, but have not had any benefit from it. I have been taking this medication for a year and have taken it for 5 years. My doctor is not going to prescribe baclofen because of the side effects but I will do my best to get the medication to you. I am going to give the medication to you and I will have a chance to talk to you about it. Please let me know how you feel. I would like to hear from you if there is anything else that you can discuss with your doctor.
Dr. Abigail,My wife is taking baclofen. She is taking the medication for several years and has taken the medication for many months. She is taking it for 2 years now. We have been trying to decide if it is a good or bad thing to stop taking it. She has not been able to keep up with the medication, but her doctor is going to give her some medicine to control her. She is hoping that it will make things better for her and she is going to keep taking the medication. I am hoping that it will stop her from getting off the medication and that she will be able to do some good with the medication.
