Hypotension, hypotonia, bradycardia, and respiratory depression are expected signs of baclofen toxicity, although the clinical presentation can vary dramatically. 65 Parker-Pitts et al. 68 described a case of baclofen toxicity that mimicked the signs and symptoms of baclofen withdrawal in a patient with a functioning intrathecal pump.
