Can You Overdose on Baclofen?

As with any medication, it is possible to take too much
 baclofen (Lioresal®). The specific effects of an overdose with baclofen can vary, depending on a number of factors, including the baclofen dosage, how it was taken, and whether it was taken with any other medications or substances.
 
The effects of an overdose with baclofen tablets may include:
 
  • Vomiting
  • Low muscle tone
  • Vision problems
  • Coma
  • Slow or shallow breathing
  • Seizures.
     
Seek immediate medical attention if you or someone else may have taken too much baclofen.
