Liofen XL Capsule contains baclofen (30 mg), which interacts with your body in the following ways:

• Activates GABA-B Receptors: Baclofen works by stimulating GABA-B receptors located in your spinal cord. These receptors play a crucial role in transmitting nerve signals that lead to muscle spasms and tightness.

• Reduces Muscle Spasms: By triggering these receptors, baclofen effectively reduces these excitatory signals. This action enables the muscles to relax more easily.

• Prolongs Therapeutic Levels: Thanks to its extended-release property, Liofen Xl capsules maintain therapeutic levels of baclofen in the body for a longer duration.

• Store Liofen XL Capsule at room temperature, ideally below 25 degrees Celsius.

• Keep the medicine away from direct light and moisture.

• Ensure the capsule is kept in its original packaging until it's time to take it.

• Always keep this medication out of the reach of children.

• Remember to check the expiry date and use the medicine before that.

• Regular physical activity like stretching exercises can help manage muscle stiffness and spasms associated with neurological disorders. However, always consult your doctor for personalised exercise advice.

• If diagnosed with a neurological disorder, maintaining a balanced diet rich in antioxidants such as fruits, vegetables, and whole grains may help. Antioxidants can help protect nerve cells from damage.
