A collection of my personal notes and thoughts on the USMLE exams.
If you want a clue on the MOA of baclofen, add "GA" to the front of the name to make GAbaclofen. Baclofen is a GABA B agonist used for its muscle relaxing properties.
just wanted to point out that Baclofen is a GABA B "antagonist" cause it inhibits those receptors at spinal cord level
ReplyDeleteNo, it is an agonist. GABA is an inhibitory transmitter, thus facilitating relaxation.
