Does Alan take blood pressure pills? The clonidine may be absorbed enough to affect blood pressure in some patients.
Most of the formulas I saw didn't have this many ingredients.
Not all patients need all the ones listed on that label.
For pain, it would be ketamine, an NSAID, maybe gabapentin, and maybe a TCA. Baclofen is only for spasms...does Alan have spasms?

HI Hopeful and Mrs D.
Mrs. D, I read your post to Alan. He didn't understand the word spasm. I showed him when the toes curl and he said "Oh I always have that". So he has spasms obviously. Then I told him about the blood pressure connection. He takes metoprolol.
I asked him if this compound has helped him and he said "Yup, I do notice some improvement'
He is now going to run this by Dr. Fred the next time he sees him. But so far, no negative side effects.
Will continue to update.
