Currently taking x2 10mg baclofen 3x daily. About 6 hours apart. wanting to eventually halve the overall daily dosage. would you expect that starting by halving just one dose a day (may be the midday dose) would cause a withdrawal response?

Currently taking 20 mg 3X daily of baclofen (every 6 hours). If my dosage was to be reduced by 5mg, should the change be noticable immediately or would it take a few doses at the reduced amount for the change to be noticeable?

Baclofen 20mg 3x daily, have spoken to my doctor about reducing by 5mg for one dose during the day to see what effect there may be. Would you think 10mg instead of 20mg for one dose would be too much?
