I can't beleive that there is another person that is allergic also! I was starting to wonder if I was some odd ball. What do you take instead? I am to see my Neuro tomarrow for further discussion on the issue as for now I do the best I can with the Klonopin until then. I am so new with all of this type of medication that I don't know what there is out there. Thanks for any input you may have.
I now think that you are officially allergic to Baclofen. Is there any other other type of med that can help you with muscle spasms and pain?
Oh so glad you reminded me. I did have a rash, That started after a couple of dosed. I had a splotchy rash not large hive type and felt like a sunburn on my torso especially around my waist band and bra line. Where ofcourse I knew thwre was no sunburn. I am so glad yuo said something I had forgotten that in the breathing mess. Infact the rash just finally went away 2 days ago even though the breathing was back to normal. Also I did take an Aveeno Oatmeal bath to help. Thank you Thank you Thank you I had missed writing that one in my notebook being so distracted from the other. But I did notice it too at the time .
You guys are great!!! Thank you so much for all the advice, I had left a msg with my neuro and am sure to hear from him come monday. (His office is closed on Fridays) I am so new to all of this and It's great to have some place to ask for experiences and opinions!! Thanks to all of you
Hi there,
Sorry you are allergic to it, but sooooo very glad you knew the warning signs!
I didn't have a reaction from it myself, but did from another med, and sure do wish I was smart enought to know what the heck was happening to me earlier than later.
Report it w/your Dr. and get yourself something else!
Belated welcome to you too, btw,

I just recently started taking Baclofen this month and have had no reaction to it except I felt a little sleepy the first week. No breathing problems whatsoever. It doesn't sound like you have an allergy to me because you said nothing about a rash or swollen tongue. But, it sure does sound like Baclofen and you don't mix together well. If I were you, I'd try talking to my neuro to see if there's a different type drug for you muscle symptoms.
No it's not, I quit taking it once I was sure it was the Baclofen and am back to normal breathing again. Thank you so much for your input as a lot of what I read everyone seems to do just fine with it. Thank you
Yep, sounds like an allergy to me...is it really worth it to load up on Benadryl just to take it? Contact your PCP or Neuro ASAP, please.
I tried baclofen again about 6 months ago questioning whether it really was a reaction or something else back then, and I got the same rash again.
I'm officially allergic. Too bad we are because baclofen really does help a lot of people.
Hope you can find another med that works for you. There are many out there to try.
Like you've already been advised, tell the doc.
