We can assume it depends on his health system. Digestion times are personal.

The half life of Baclofen is 2 - 6 hours. Since the drug is eliminated from the body relatively quickly it is taken in several doses spread across the day.
In elderly patients a lowering of the daily dose might be required. It is best to talk to the physician who prescribed the drug.
