How it Works?
Baclonux 10 Tablet contains baclofen (10 mg), which acts in the body by:
• Mimicking GABA Effects: Baclofen acts like gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), a neurotransmitter in the brain that reduces nerve activity in the brain and spinal cord.
• Suppressing Nerve Signal Transmission: Baclofen helps suppress nerve signals between the brain/spinal cord and skeletal muscles, reducing muscle responsiveness.
• Reducing Muscle Excitability: The suppression of nerve signals lowers excessive muscle excitability and tone, aiding muscle relaxation over time.
