Purpose & Protection
- I know this medicine helps lower severe muscle tightness (spasticity) from certain brain, spinal cord, or nerve conditions
- I know the goal is better movement or daily function, not just making my muscles feel loose

- I know serious liver injury can occur, so liver tests and symptom checks are important
