Baclofen/Creatinine [Mass Ratio] in Urine by Confirmatory method

Active

Part Descriptions

LP17857-1   Baclofen
A gamma-aminobutyric acid derivative that is a specific agonist at GABA-B receptors (receptors, GABA-B). It is used in the treatment of spasticity, especially that due to spinal cord damage. Its therapeutic effects result from actions at spinal and supraspinal sites, generally the reduction of excitatory transmission. Source: National Library of Medicine, MeSH 2006

LP17857-1   Baclofen
Baclofen (brand names Kemstro, Lioresal, Liofen, Gablofen, Beklo and Baclosan) is a derivative of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and acts as an agonist for the GABA-B receptors. It is primarily used to treat spasticity. It has also been used to treat symptoms of opiate withdrawl, including muscle cramps and muscle pain as well as the intense shivering often experienced. Research has shown it may be an effective treatment for alcohol dependence and withdrawal, by inhibiting both withdrawal symptoms and cravings. Oral dosage must be carefully regulated; significantly high doses of the drug, particularly 80 mg per day or higher, can cause excessive ataxia and/or drowsiness that can interfere with daily function.

LP32035-5   Creatinine
Creatinine or creatine anhydride, is a breakdown product of creatine phosphate in muscle. The loss of water molecule from creatine results in the formation of creatinine. It is transferred to the kidneys by blood plasma, whereupon it is eliminated by glomular filtration and partial tubular excretion. Creatinine is usually produced at a fairly constant rate and measuring its serum level is a simple test. A rise in blood creatinine levels is observed only with marked damage to functioning nephrons; therefore this test is not suitable for detecting early kidney disease. Creatine and creatinine are metabolized in the kidneys, muscle, liver and pancreas.
