Baclofen - what is your prescription?
I know it’s an odd question but I wonder if I need something else. The reason being I have internal buzzing all the time. Day and night. Which if not controlled with 10mg of baclofen, turns into deep tremors throughout my body including my voice. My muscles then start to tighten up. Also my pronunciation goes awol.
So depending on how my MS is behaving, on any given day/night, sometimes I end up taking take 4 or 5. Is that excessive?
If you have similar symptoms and take baclofen could you let me know how many you take in a 24 hour period? Many thanks.
I also have the buzzing all the time but it is barely noticable now im on 30mg of baclofen 3 times a day,it also reduces all my other symptoms so very greatful its currently working. Have been offered Amantridine on top if things get worse
