Baclofen is indicated for the treatment of spasticity resulting from multiple sclerosis and is particularly useful for the relief of flexor spasms and concomitant pain, clonus, and muscular rigidity. It may also be of value in the treatment of patients with spinal cord injuries or diseases. Baclofen is also indicated as an intrathecal injection for the management of severe spasticity of cerebral or spinal original in patients 4 years of age and older. Patients who respond to bolus intrathecal doses of baclofen, and who require chronic therapy, can use an implantable intrathecal pump to administer baclofen via long-term infusion.
FDA Label
Treatment of alcohol dependence
In neurological diseases associated with spasm of the skeletal muscles, the clinical effects of baclofen occur due to baclofen action on reflex muscle contractions and of significant relief from painful spasm, automatism, as well as clonus. Baclofen, when used as indicated, improves mobility, increasing levels of independence, and facilitates both passive and active physiotherapy. Baclofen also stimulates gastric acid secretion. GABA-B receptor activation by baclofen may produce protective neurological effects. Baclofen also possesses anti-inflammatory properties that may be of interest in the study of addiction treatment. Preclinical studies have shown that GABA-B receptors have roles in memory storage and retrieval, reward, motivation, mood, as well as anxiety. Neuroimaging studies in humans indicate that baclofen produces region-specific alterations in brain activity.
GABA-B Receptor Agonists
Endogenous compounds and drugs that bind to and activate GABA-B RECEPTORS. (See all compounds classified as GABA-B Receptor Agonists.)
Muscle Relaxants, Central
A heterogeneous group of drugs used to produce muscle relaxation, excepting the neuromuscular blocking agents. They have their primary clinical and therapeutic uses in the treatment of muscle spasm and immobility associated with strains, sprains, and injuries of the back and, to a lesser degree, injuries to the neck. They have been used also for the treatment of a variety of clinical conditions that have in common only the presence of skeletal muscle hyperactivity, for example, the muscle spasms that can occur in MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS.

Absorption
Rapidly and almost completely absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. Absorption may be dose-dependent, being reduced with increased doses. Baclofen, when introduced directly into the intrathecal space, allows for effective CSF concentrations to be achieved with resulting plasma concentrations 100 times less than concentrations occurring with oral administration,.
Route of Elimination
Baclofen is rapidly and extensively eliminated from the body. There is significant intersubject variation in elimination rates. Baclofen is excreted mainly by the kidney as unchanged drug. Seventy to eighty (70 - 80%) of a dose is measured in the urine as unchanged drug. The remainder of the dose is excreted as unchanged drug in the feces or as metabolites in the urine and feces. Excretion is complete within 72 hours after administration.
Volume of Distribution
**Apparent volume of distribution**: 59 liters. Baclofen does not readily cross the blood-brain barrier.
Clearance
**Total systemic clearance**: 180 mL/min **Renal clearance**: 103 mL/min Baclofen is primarily excreted unchanged by the kidneys. It should be administered cautiously, and it may be necessary to reduce the dosage in patients with reduced renal function.
Approximately 15% of the dose is metabolized in the liver, mainly by deamination. In a clinical study with radiolabeled baclofen, approximately 85% of the dose was excreted unchanged in the urine and feces. The -hydroxy metabolite, 3-(p-chlorophenyl)-4-hydroxybutyric acid, is formed by the deamination of baclofen. Because baclofen is partially metabolized in the liver, patients with impaired liver function should be regularly monitored with liver function tests.
Elimination half-life: Approximately 5.5 hours.
The exact mechanism of action of baclofen is not fully understood at this time,. Many studies indicate that baclofen is a GABA-B receptor agonist,,,,. Despite this, there is no conclusive evidence that the effects of baclofen on GABA systems are involved in the production of its clinical effects. Baclofen is an effective and widely used antispastic agent with a spinal site of action. Its mechanism of action and pharmacological properties are different from the effects of other antispastic agents. In addition, baclofen has central sites of action, shown by its adverse event profile and general CNS depressant properties. GABA-B receptors interact with signal transduction pathways and neurotransmitter systems. Baclofen exerts an antinociceptive effect. The clinical significance of this warrants further research data for clarification. Baclofen depresses monosynaptic and polysynaptic reflex transmission, by various actions, and possibly including the stimulation of GABA-receptors. This stimulation results in the inhibition of excitatory neurotransmitter (glutamate and aspartate) release, which may normally contribute to pain and spasticity. Although baclofen is an analog of the inhibitory neurotransmitter gamma-amino-butyric acid (GABA), there are no conclusive data indicating GABA systems are involved in its clinical effects.
