Baclofen

Baclofen is a prescription medication primarily used to relax muscles and reduce spasticity caused by conditions like multiple sclerosis or spinal cord injuries. It works by calming nerve signals in the spinal cord that cause muscle tightness. Baclofen can be taken orally or administered via a pump directly into the spinal fluid for severe cases. While effective, it may cause side effects such as drowsiness, dizziness, or weakness. It's important to use baclofen under medical supervision, as sudden stopping can lead to withdrawal symptoms or increased spasticity.
