Baclofen Withdrawal TimeFrame

2018-04-19 15:40:55
I was on 20 mgs per day of baclofen for about 8 months. Ran out baclofen & stopped about 3 weeks ago (cold turkey). Still dealing with the following side effects - slight vision impairment (focusing issues) - slightly light headed at times during the day How much longer until effects subside? Is there anything else I can do to expedite?

Remember that your doctor has prescribed this because he or she has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Many people using this medication do not have serious side effects. Drowsiness, diziness, weakness, tiredness, headache, troubled sleepin, nausea, increased urination, or constipation may occur. abrupt discontinuation cn worsen the symptoms as it has to taperdown since it has got potential withdrawal symptoms well it depends on individual dere is no such time frame known
