Hi there.
Thanks for the query.
Baclofen is taken for muscle spasms and Tramadol for pain.
Both tend to cause drowsiness as a common side effect so when taken together, this effect can be potentiated. Kindly avoid driving or operating heavy machinery under the influence of these medication.
The drugs can be taken together but only in the prescribed doses by your Doctor for the time specified only.
