Product Details and Features:
Active Ingredient: Each tablet contains 10 mg of Baclofen, a well-established muscle relaxant that aids in managing spasticity.
Quantity: Available in a convenient 100-count bottle, offering ease of access and consistent availability for ongoing treatment.
Efficacy: Known for its ability to effectively alleviate muscle stiffness and improve range of motion, providing a better quality of life for patients.
Mechanism of Action:
Baclofen is a gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) derivative that exerts its effects as a central nervous system (CNS) depressant. It primarily acts on the spinal cord to inhibit both monosynaptic and polysynaptic reflexes at the spinal level. By binding to GABA-B receptors, Baclofen reduces the release of excitatory neurotransmitters, leading to decreased muscle tone and spasticity.
