Baclofen - Generic drug known as Lioresal branded medicine is GABAB receptor agonist. GABA is the principal inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain used to ease signs and symptoms of muscle spasticity from Multiple Sclerosis. Neurotransmitters are the chemicals that nerves use for communicating with one-another in the brain. It is believed of restraining spread of reflexes at spinal cord levels. However, off-label uses of Baclofen-Lioresal incorporate treatment of trigeminal neuralgia, tardive dyskinesias and intractable hiccups. Baclofen-Lioresal could be termed as active medicine that relaxes the muscles that move the skeleton which are also known as striated muscles.

GABA discharged by some nerves causes the activity of other nerves to reduce. It is said that Baclofen-Lioresal acting like GABA blocks the activity of nerves within part of the brain that controls contraction and relaxation of the skeletal muscles. Baclofen-Lioresal slows down both monosynaptic and polysynaptic reflexes at spinal levels, most likely through reducing excitatory neurotransmitter discharge from basic afferent terminals, while actions at the supraspinal sites may also occur and contribute to its clinical effects. Baclofen-Lioresal is the structural analog of inhibitory neurotransmitter Gamma Amino Butyric Acid–GABA and may exercise its effects by stimulation of GABA
receptor subtype.
