I don't have RSD but I do have MS and take Baclofen regularly.

It helps with the spasticity I get in my legs (left leg usually). I take 10 mg tablets about every 4-5 hours.

I take them even if I don't feel I need them at that exact moment because keeping an even level of the med in my system helps keep the "attacks" at a minimum.

I have 20 mg tablets but it seems that's too much for me to take all at once. The sedation from it is severe at that dosage for me. So I split the pills and take 10 mg at a time and that seems to work for me.

I've had to play with the dosage levels some in order to get the right fit for me. Right now it works well so I'm just sticking with what works.

I've never tried another type of med so I'm really not sure what's available out there. I really should investigate because I know that down the road I'll probably need something stronger.

Good luck to you. Oh, and Baclofen is relatively inexpensive so that helps a lot, too.
