Baclofen IP 10mg tablet

Baclofen IP 10mg Tablet: Baclofen is employed to decrease and alleviate muscle spasms (increased tension in the muscles) found in many illnesses. Muscle spasm refers to the involuntary, sudden contraction of a muscle that hurts and is uncomfortable. When the nerve impulses guiding the movement of the muscles are disrupted or damaged, it may result in muscle spasms.

Baclofen acts on the spinal cord and brain, thus assisting in sustaining muscle strength and alleviating muscle spasms or rigidity. Thus, Baclofen decreases muscle spasm in cases of multiple sclerosis (a condition that impacts the brain and spinal cord), cerebrovascular accidents (injury to the brain as a result of insufficient blood supply), cerebral palsy (a condition of movement, posture, and muscle tone), spinal cord diseases, and other nervous system diseases.

Medical Benefits:

• Baclofen is a muscle relaxant. It acts on the spinal cord and brain to reduce stiffness or spasm of the muscles, keeping the muscles strong.
• It's used to treat muscle spasms, which can occur in nervous system diseases like cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, motor neuron disease, or trauma to the head, brain, or spine.
• Baclofen decreases muscle spasm in multiple sclerosis, cerebrovascular accidents, cerebral palsy, spinal cord disorders, and other nervous system diseases.
