I try to remember to take the Baclofen around 7 PM. That way it has an hour or so to get into my system. If I don't go to bed before 10 or 11 I usually take another one.

Oh, btw, I stopped Lisinopril, too. I haven't started a different HBP med yet but expect my PCP to suggest one.

I can't imagine that I'm not getting enough magnesium. I eat nuts (walnuts, almonds, cashews) plus I take a good multi-vitamin along with my slew of supplements. I might just try the Slow-Mag, though. Can't hurt.
