To remember Baclofen is a GABA agaonist and muscle relaxant, I always think of "Greek Baklava". Greek for GABA, and Baklava for Baclofen.

Ptx appears to have Muscle spasticity as a result of MS. Spasticity is treated with a muscle relaxant like Baclofen which is a GABA agonist. Bethanacol is a Cholinomimentic which can be used to treat Urinary dysfunction in Multiple sclerosis. but the Question asks what would help treat the spasticity.

This patient presents with symptoms of Multiple Sclerosis. Treatment is as follows:

• disease modifying (B interferon, Natalizumab, glatiramer)
• acute flares (IV Steroids)
• neurogenic bladder symptoms (catheterization, muscarinic antagonists)
• Spasticity ( Baclofen, GABAb receptor antagonists)
• pain (TCAs and anticonvulsants)

Pyridostigmine is an acetylcholineserase inhibitor used long term for MG (Sketchy). Put pyridostigmine as my answer because it does treat MS. But yes baclofen is a classic anti-spasm drug.
