Bacoflen and Nabilone are working

I started on Nabilone this summer (for my sciatic nerve pain) and on Baclofen (for spasms) this fall. The Nabilone has definitely made a difference in my sciatic pain, noticeable after several weeks.  This is the second time I've tried Bacoflen: the first time I gave up after a couple weeks because I felt that it made me feel drowsy without any noticeable benefit, but this time it really seems to have made a big difference in my spasms. Do Baclofen and Nabilone make me drowsier?  I'm not sure,  but so far I would say that the benefits outweigh the side effects.
