This muscle relaxant is used to manage muscle spasticity — the tightening or stiffening of muscles — caused by conditions such as multiple sclerosis or spinal cord injury. It works by blocking nerve signals in the brain and spinal cord that trigger muscle contractions. It can cause significant drowsiness and a drop in blood pressure, especially when first starting treatment.
