Baclofen overdose mimicking anoxic encephalopathy: a case report and review of the literature.

John J Miller1.   

Abstract

A patient who has overdosed on baclofen can present with significant neurological symptoms suggestive of a serious brain insult, but with appropriate diagnosis and treatment they often fully recover within 72 h. If the patient had been maintained on chronic baclofen therapy prior to the overdose, one must be watchful for signs of baclofen withdrawal as recovery from the overdose occurs.
