Antispastics are medications used to reduce muscle spasms and improve muscle control. They are often prescribed for conditions like multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, and other neurological disorders that cause involuntary muscle contractions. By relaxing the muscles, antispastics can help alleviate pain and improve mobility. Common antispastic medications include baclofen, tizanidine, and dantrolene. These drugs work by acting on the nervous system to decrease the frequency and intensity of muscle spasms. While effective, they may have side effects such as drowsiness or dizziness, so it's important for patients to discuss their use with a healthcare provider.
