Celic Baclofen Tablet 10mg

Adult dose

Treatment with this medicine should always be started at a low dose, which is gradually increased. The optimal dose should be determined individually for each patient at a level that reduces myoclonic seizures, flexor and extensor rigidity, and spasms while avoiding adverse effects as much as possible. To prevent excessive muscle weakness and falls, use with caution when muscle tone is needed to maintain balance while standing and moving, and to preserve function. It is important to allow transient spasms that help maintain some muscle tone and support circulatory function. Take this medicine with a small amount of water during meals. The daily dose for adults should be administered orally in 3 divided doses. ○ Adults 1. Administer 5㎎ of baclofen orally 3 times daily. Increase each dose by 5㎎, 3 times daily, at 3-day intervals until the optimal dose is determined. 2. For patients who are hypersensitive to this medicine, it is advisable to start with a lower dose (5-10㎎ per day) and increase it slowly. 3. The usual optimal dose is 30-80㎎ per day. Hospitalized patients may receive 100-120㎎ per day under close supervision.

Child dose

○ Children (12 months to 18 years) 1. Treatment is generally started at a very low dose (0.3 mg/kg per day in 2~4 divided doses). 2. The usual daily maintenance dose is 0.75~2mg/kg. 3. The maximum daily dose for children under 8 years is 40mg. 3. The maximum daily dose for children aged 8 years and older is 60mg. 4. Increase the dose carefully at intervals of about 1-2 weeks until it is appropriate for the individual patient's needs. If no clear therapeutic effect is observed within 6-8 weeks after administration of the maximum dose, reconsider whether to continue treatment with this medicine. The daily dose for children should be administered orally in 4 divided doses.

Taking this medication may result in central nervous system adverse reactions such as drowsiness or sedation, usually appearing at the start of treatment and may improve with dosage adjustments. Elderly patients with mental disorders or cerebrovascular diseases may experience worsened reactions, requiring additional caution. Rapid discontinuation after long-term use may lead to severe symptoms like anxiety, confusion, and hallucinations, so the dosage should be gradually reduced.

During pregnancy, it is only to be used when absolutely necessary due to potential risks to the fetus, and while breastfeeding, only small quantities are secreted into breast milk, with a low risk of adverse reactions. Elderly patients may experience side effects more easily due to decreased physical function, so treatment should start with lower doses and close observation is essential. In the event of overdose, severe symptoms such as central nervous system depression, respiratory difficulty, blood pressure changes, and seizures may occur, requiring immediate emergency treatment and appropriate therapies such as gastric lavage, activated charcoal administration, and artificial respiration.
