Baclofen confusion and drowsiness

2018-03-17 09:51:09
Doctor has given Baclofen for my grandma to take 3 times a day, she had it for a day and a half and is now suffering from a lot of drowsiness and confusion. She has never had confusion and repetitiveness before. We have stopped the medication but how long does it take to leave the system.
