[uniway]

Hi,
Am here for my friend who is been using baclofen for an year. Slowly he has taken up to 300mg a day and switched back to 80mg with time,his alcohol cravings also decreased and almost stopped.
But last month he drunked two or three times now he cant control himself his carvings,now he is going with 80mg a day, but he insist on raising the dose back to 300mg,i don't know whether its safe or not last time when he took 300mg he had severe side effects.

Can anyone tell me whether the doses he using is safe for him or not.
pls reply fast..

I don't think anyone here can help you out with your questions, Uniway. I'm sorry. There are too many factors involved to be able to say what's safe for someone, especially second-hand.

It might be a good idea to ask him!

well since you asked for me, I'll chime in

I would as Neva said, contact a Dr. first, and then if you do decide to go up do so under his care. I would go back up the same way I did the first time -- slowly. Going from 80 to 300 right away might cause some bad SEs -- more than likely will cause bad SEs. I can only go by what people have written on here as I have never tried that large of a jump myself.
