Bacloscan 10mg Tablet
PRODUCT DETAILS
About Bacloscan 10mg Tablet
BACLOFEN belongs to the group of medicines called 'muscle relaxant' used to reduce and relieve the muscle spasms (excessive tension in the muscles) occurring in various illness. Muscle spasm is the sudden involuntary contractions of the muscle, which can be painful and uncomfortable. When the nerve impulses that control the muscle movements are damaged or interrupted, it could lead to muscle spasms.
BACLOFEN works by inhibiting the reflexes at the spinal level and helps in relieving pain and improves muscle movements. BACLOFEN works on spinal cord and brain, thereby helps in maintaining muscle strength and relieves muscle spasms or stiffness. Thus BACLOFEN reduces muscle spasm in the conditions of multiple sclerosis (a disorder which affects the brain and spinal cord), cerebrovascular accidents (damage to the brain due to lack of blood supply), cerebral palsy (a disorder of movement, posture and muscle tone), spinal cord diseases and other nervous system disorders.

Medicinal Benefits of Bacloscan 10mg Tablet
BACLOFEN belongs to the group of medicines called muscle relaxants used to reduce and relieve the muscle spasms (excessive tension in the muscles) occurring in various illness such as multiple sclerosis (a disorder which affects the brain and spinal cord), cerebrovascular accidents (damage to the brain due to lack of blood supply), cerebral palsy (a disorder of movement, posture and muscle tone), spinal cord diseases and other nervous system disorders. BACLOFEN works by inhibiting the reflexes at the spinal level and helps in relieving pain and improves muscle movements. BACLOFEN is particularly effective for relieving involuntary muscle spasms in the ankle, hip, and knee. BACLOFEN also helps in restoring muscle function; however, BACLOFEN is not effective for muscle spasms caused by stroke, Parkinson’s disease, or rheumatoid arthritis. BACLOFEN works on the centres of the spinal cord and brain, thereby helps in maintaining muscle strength and relieves muscle spasms or stiffness. BACLOFEN is used off-label to treat hiccups or Tourette’s syndrome (a nervous problem which causes people to make uncontrollable sudden movements or sounds).
