A member asked:
Started baclofen 10mg a week ago. neck/shoulders looser one day, not so much another day. intermittent. is it reasonable to ask doc about higher dose?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Baclofen side effect: Higher doses of that medication means more side effects. Typically the variable symptom control is more a matter of your condition rather than effectiveness of the medication. Don't chase symptoms with meds. More importantly, what's your diagnosis? There may be other treatment modalities rather than increasing doses of a complicated medication. Lioresal (baclofen) is an spinal catheter delivered version.
