Spakem Tablet 5 mg contains Baclofen, a muscle relaxant commonly used to relieve muscle spasticity associated with conditions such as multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injuries, or cerebral palsy. Baclofen works by acting on the central nervous system to inhibit nerve signals that cause muscle stiffness, spasms, and pain, thereby improving mobility, reducing discomfort, and enhancing the quality of life for patients with neurological disorders.

Spakem 5 mg is typically prescribed as a starting dose, allowing gradual titration to achieve optimal therapeutic effects while minimizing side effects. It is effective in reducing muscle hyperactivity, improving functional abilities, and facilitating physical rehabilitation.
