Bacoflen

I have had RLS for two years and lately been taking Ropininrole 2 mgs at night plus 200 mgs Gabapentin plus .05 Valium. I have now added Bacoflen 10 mgs at night. Has anyone with RLS has any experience with taking muscle relaxant Bacoflen 10 mgs at night?

I assume you meant Baclofen but no I haven't any experience with it. But if you put it in the search box at the top right, you will see a number of posts about it.

we were told by our neurologist that Baclofen was useless for RLS

I have taken baclofen for reflux disease but it did not help my RLS.

Baclofen didn’t help with my RLS at all. I think you might reconsider your other meds and switch (slowly over time) away from ropinerol and increase significantly the gabapentin and maybe go to low dose opiate instead of the Valium. There are many posts about the reasons for this and how to do the switch.
