I was taking 10 mg in the a.m. and 20 mg before I went to bed. The neuro said that I should adjust the timing of the dose so that it helped the most when I needed it most. My bad time was in the a.m., so that's why the night time dose was higher.

I, too, tried to wean off it to find out if the spasticity was still there and had a horrible time with spasms. I finally was able to get off it and ended up only with bad tightness in both of my calves--it doesn't go away with stretching either.

It's worse on my right side. But when my back spasmed, man everything was crazy. My reflexes were all nuts. I've NEVER seen anything like it before. The doc was lucky I didn't kick him in the by accident!

Hope you get some relief soon.
