Used primarily as a short-acting muscle relaxant to treat muscle spasticity caused by conditions such as multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury, or other neurological disorders. It works by blocking nerve impulses responsible for muscle tightness or stiffness, helping improve movement and reduce discomfort. Often prescribed for short-term relief, it may also be used off-label for managing certain types of pain, insomnia, or as an adjunct in chronic pain management due to its sedative effects. Commonly favored for its rapid onset and shorter duration, allowing flexible dosing throughout the day.
