Dantrolene "My husband has been suffering from a contracting right hand and foot for over 2 years due to a stroke. Physiotherapy twice weekly for 2 years did nothing. Botox injections have actually worsened his condition now due to lack of muscle strength. Baclofen did absolutely nothing. He has had chronic pain in his whole left side of his body. He is only 45 years old and our whole life has changed due to his immobility. Dantrolene (Dantrium) is proving to be the most amazing medicine for him. No more pain. His hand appears normal and relaxed, and he can use it more. He has been drowsy (drunk-like) but is told that those symptoms will decline with usage. So far we are very impressed with Dantrium and very grateful for its effectiveness. Thanks."

"Dantrolene 50 mg for times a day reduces my deep muscle lower back spasm as effectively as 5 mg diazepam three times a day, without any central nervous system side effects like drowsiness or sedation."

Dantrolene "Dantrium weakens my whole body and not the muscles that I want it to loosen. Also made me feel nauseated. Could never finish my meals. I prefer Baclofen because that is better for pain."
