Key points

  • Baclofen acts centrally to reduce the number and severity of muscle spasms.
  • Lioresal and Baclosign both contain baclofen alone.
  • Each attached record represents 10 mg and 25 mg tablets.
  • Sudden withdrawal can cause serious neurological symptoms.

A compact two-brand catalogue

Lioresal and Baclosign carry the same attached ingredient, tablet form and strength range. Both connect with spasticity and muscle spasms in the pain and anti-inflammatories category.

Their shared catalogue facts make this an ingredient-led page: brand name is the main visible difference in the attached data. No combination product or non-tablet form is represented here.

Spinal action and withdrawal

Baclofen reduces excitatory signalling in the spinal cord. This can ease stiffness, spasms and associated pain, but it can also cause drowsiness, weakness, dizziness or confusion.

Its withdrawal profile is especially important. Abruptly stopping baclofen after regular use can lead to fever, hallucinations, confusion, muscle rigidity or seizures. Official information therefore treats a gradual, clinically directed change as part of safe medicine handling rather than a generic precaution.
