Baclofen Tablets IP 20 mg are muscle relaxant used to treat muscle spasms, stiffness, and pain caused by neurological conditions. This medication requires a doctor’s prescription and should be taken with or after food as directed. 
Key Information
  • Active Ingredient: Each tablet contains 20 mg of Baclofen.
  • Mechanism of Action: Baclofen works on the brain and spinal cord by activating GABA-B receptors, which helps calm overactive nerve signals that cause muscle stiffness and spasms.

    • Multiple sclerosis
    • Spinal cord injuries or diseases
    • Cerebral palsy
    • Motor neuron disease
    • Other brain or spinal cord injuries
  • Dosage: The dose is determined by your doctor and typically starts low, gradually increasing as needed and tolerated. The usual maximum dose for adults is generally no more than 80 mg per day.
  • Administration: The tablets should be swallowed whole; do not chew, crush, or break them.
  • Important Precaution: Do not stop taking baclofen suddenly without consulting your doctor, as this can lead to serious withdrawal symptoms such as seizures, hallucinations, or severe muscle stiffness.
