Abstract
Spasticity is a frequent symptom in people with Multiple Sclerosis. Whilst many respond to first-line therapies it is estimated that 30-40% will have suboptimal treatment response requiring more specialised management. Such strategies include combination of oral medications, botulinum toxin, nabiximols and consideration of intrathecal therapies; baclofen or phenol. Early expert intervention as outlined in this review can have a positive impact on functional ability and quality of life for people with MS.
