Hi there - Katie has taken baclofen by her g-tube. I found . that at first it did make her very sleepy, even a tiny dose. Now, that seems to have evened out, but it also made her quite fussy, and I have wondered if it upsets her tummy. (she has a pretty sensitive tummy). So, she has one teeny dose of 2 mg a day, and we use clonazepam primarily for her tone. This usually makes her sleepy briefly, then she's good to go. ALthough, when we first started that, she was very sleepy for a week or two, as well... Stacy
