CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1 Therapeutic indications
DANTRIUM is indicated in controlling the manifestations of clinical
spasticity resulting
from serious chronic disorders such as spinal cord injury, stroke,
cerebral palsy, or multiple
sclerosis. It is of particular benefit to the patient whose functional
rehabilitation has been
retarded by the sequelae of spasticity. Such patients must have
presumably reversible
spasticity where relief of spasticity will aid in restoring residual
function. There is no
evidence that patients with contractures will benefit. DANTRIUM is not
indicated in the
treatment of skeletal muscle spasm resulting from rheumatic disorders
or electroconvulsive
therapy.
If improvement occurs, it will ordinarily occur within the dosage
titration schedule (see
section 4.2), as manifested by a decrease in the severity of
spasticity and the ability to resume
a daily function not quite attainable without DANTRIUM.
