Baclofen - Controlled Substance?
UpdatedIs Baclofen (10mg) recognized as a controlled substance? Does it have a narcotic in it? Does it control pain?

No, it is classified as a muscle relaxant, so it does not contain a narcotic, according to FDA listings. It is used to treat the pain associated with muscle sprains, strains, and spasms.
The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, and dry mouth.
Is there anything else I can help with?
I want to know if Baclofen is a controlled substance and if it is, then what class is it in?

No way, you will develop tolerance and get in trouble. Butrans is buphrenorpine an opioid/analgesic. Discuss with your Doctor.

Just curious to know what you think. taking too deep.unfortunately well?
