Spasticity?

I have had spasticity for 7+ years and have tried gabapentin to know avail and have tried tizanidine to no avail. Neuro is now suggesting baclofen, and I am wondering if anyone here has taken baclofen for spasticity and if so, what results? And were there any side effects?

I am sorry to hear of your problems with spasticity, @tomsoftley. I am not familiar with treatments for this disorder. Many members have discussed baclofen for neuropathy; here are links to discussions about this medication: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/search/

Have any other treatments been suggested, like physical therapy?
