مستخلص: Baclofen is a commonly used medication for managing muscle spasticity with the potential of causing life-threatening adverse effects, including encephalopathy as well as withdrawal symptoms including confusion and hallucinations following abrupt discontinuation. Severe toxicity with baclofen is common in patients with kidney disease, hence the importance of dose reduction and monitoring in patients with renal impairment. This article reports a case of encephalopathy with low-dose baclofen in an otherwise healthy young adult concurrently taking ibuprofen and baclofen and aims to underscore the importance of potential drug interaction and patient education when initiating baclofen.
