A member asked:
What are the restrictions when you get a baclofen pump?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Comments: Since you do not describe the reasons for your question, will be generic. There is a risk of infection, so hygiene is critical. Vigorous sports, and falling could damage or disconnect the pump. Monitoring of whether full enough is important. Side effects may occur such as drowsiness, and driving could be impaired. Discuss further with your doctor.
