Hi
Just wondering if anyone else here is taking baclofen? Baclofen is an anti-spasmodic medication often used to treat MS patients and spinal injury patients. I'm on it to help control spasms. It does have raising blood sugar levels as a listed side effect.
If you are on it... are you finding it is increasing your levels?
At the moment I'm trying to stabilise myself after a long period of illness and sometimes I wonder if this drug is contributing to my sugar levels being higher. I'm on 25mg of it per day. But I take 5mg, 10mg, 10mg. It has to be taken with meals as if you take it without food it makes you real sick. At this stage I will be kept on the drug because they pulled me off it once last year and I was worse without it.
