A nurse is educating the client about the baclofen. Which of the following responses is a therapeutic use of baclofen?

Correct Answer: A

C: Treatment of malignant hyperthermia - Baclofen is not used to treat malignant hyperthermia, which is a life-threatening condition triggered by certain drugs during anesthesia.
