    Author: Duraski SA, Sayyad A.
    Journal: J Neurosci Nurs; 2018 Apr; 50(2):116-119. PubMed ID: 29521737.
    Abstract:
    This article details an unreported potential cause of withdrawal symptoms in a patient with cerebral palsy who experienced intrathecal baclofen withdrawal shortly after placement of a baclofen pump with subsequent refill with Gablofen. Initial implantation of the baclofen pump with Lioresal occurred after a successful hospital trial of intrathecal injection via lumbar puncture. However, later, the patient did experience signs and symptoms of baclofen withdrawal after a pump refill was performed with Gablofen.
