I've been using Baclofen 10mg/20 Inj, 20ml for my spinal cord injury spasticity for six months, and it's been a game-changer for my muscle stiffness. I was initially hesitant about the intrathecal pump, but the difference in side effects and effectiveness compared to oral Baclofen has been night and day. However, I'm worried about the rare but serious side effects listed. I've experienced mild dizziness and fatigue, but nothing alarming. My doctor assures me these are manageable. I'd love to hear from others on this medication—what's your experience been like? Any tips for managing side effects? And lastly, remember that along with your doctor, you can report side effects to the FDA at 1-800-332-1088 or online at https://www.fda.gov/medwatch if you have any questions or concerns.
