Indications:
Bacmax 5 MG is indicated for the treatment of muscle spasticity and related symptoms in conditions such as multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injuries, cerebral palsy, and other neurological disorders.
Pharmacology:
Baclofen acts as a GABA-B receptor agonist, inhibiting monosynaptic and polysynaptic reflexes at the spinal level, leading to reduced muscle tone and spasticity.
Dosage:
Adults & children over 10 years: 5 mg three times daily, preferably with or after food. The dose may be gradually increased up to a maximum of 100 mg daily.
Children under 10 years: Treatment usually starts with 2.5 mg (2.5 ml) four times daily, then adjusted based on individual needs. Maintenance doses vary by age group.
Administration:
Oral administration with or after food to minimize gastrointestinal discomfort.
Interaction:
Increased sedation may occur if Bacmax is taken with agents acting on the central nervous system, alcohol, or synthetic opiates.
Combined treatment with Bacmax and antihypertensives may increase the fall in blood pressure; therefore, the dosage of antihypertensive medication should be adjusted accordingly.
The concomitant administration of Bacmax and tricyclic antidepressants may potentiate the pharmacological effects of Bacmax resulting in pronounced muscular hypotonia.
Contraindications:
Bacmax is contraindicated in patients with hypersensitivity to Baclofen or any component of this product.
Side Effects:
Common side effects include drowsiness, dizziness, weakness, fatigue, nausea, and headache. Rarely, allergic reactions may occur.
Pregnancy & Lactation:
Pregnancy: Category B3. Baclofen should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus.
Lactation: Baclofen is excreted in breast milk, but available evidence suggests that the quantities are so minimal that no adverse effects on the infant are expected.
Precautions & Warnings:
Use cautiously in patients with renal or hepatic impairment.
Discontinue if signs of hypersensitivity or severe side effects occur.
Avoid abrupt withdrawal; taper dose gradually under medical supervision.
Therapeutic Class:
Centrally acting skeletal muscle relaxants.
Storage Conditions:
Store in a cool, dry place below 30°C, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.
