Agreed, I take 50mg baclofen & 100 mg dantrium/day.  I've also taken an extra 
dose of baclofen midday too.  If you take dantrium check your liver yearly.

  Hi David,

   

  You may wish to check your urine again for infection, which you seem to 
already know that increased spasms can be a symptom of UTI.

   

  You would certainly want to consult with a physician first, but you could 
consider increasing your Baclofen dosage as high as 30 mg four times daily (the 
maximum recommended dosage), though you would want to do so gradually, stopping 
when the spasms become controllable again. There are also other medications 
such as Dantrium (or Dantrolene, the generic equivalent) that may help curb 
your spasms.

   

  Best of luck to you...

  Subject: [QUAD-L] Having more and more spasms

   

        Recently I have been having more leg spasms than normal.So much where i 
have to tie my legs down at night and I cant sleep they keep me awake.

        I take 10 mg of baclofen 4 times a day so my Doc uped it to 5 times a 
day. This is the3rd day and they are still jumping.

        I know my urologist sain my urine is clean, no infections.

        If my spasms persit, what can I do?

        Please help.

        Thanks
