Baclofen hell - please help

I haven't checked in for some time and this thread was at the top of the page. I didn't know Clearhead but to her family and friends, you have my sincere sympathies.

It seems, after prolonged use (5 months), that from the 5th September at 150 mg she tapered to 100 mg by the 9th September. She was then under care, in a clinic, and tapered to 0 mg by the 13th Sept on the advice of the Doctor!!

I may be missing some important part of the equation here and be out of line: if so please let me know or better still, just ignore this post. However any one who has been around the Baclofen threads for any time would surely recommend against such a fast taper. Am I right?

Again I apologize for this intrusion but it seems to me that although MWO is important as a place of support it also plays a significant role of guidance, scrutiny and analysis of these medications.

!! might not be the right reaction. "Criminal negligence" springs more to my mind.
