PROVEN EFFECTIVE
In the Cervical Dystonia clinical study, patients treated with BOTOX® saw a reduction in abnormal head position.
Results from a key clinical study showed that after receiving BOTOX® treatment (as compared with placebo), people with Cervical Dystonia had:
- Improved head position
- Overall improvements (based on a physician assessment scale)
- Reduced intensity and frequency of neck pain
How BOTOX® Works
BOTOX® works by temporarily blocking the nerve signals that cause muscle contractions.
What is Cervical Dystonia?
Cervical Dystonia is a disorder characterized by involuntary spasms of neck muscles that cause abnormal head and neck postures and movements.
BOTOX® Injections for Cervical Dystonia
BOTOX® is injected into the affected muscles and blocks the signals that tell the muscles to contract.
As a result, muscle contractions may be reduced.
When can I expect to see results with BOTOX® for Cervical Dystonia?
In a key clinical study, patients treated with BOTOX® saw improvements in head position and reduced neck pain associated with Cervical Dystonia in as early as 2 weeks, with full benefit measured at 6 weeks.
Treatment once every 12 weeks
There is no daily treatment required with BOTOX®. Your specialist will administer BOTOX® treatments by injecting the medicine directly into the affected muscles. You can get treated again after the effect of the previous injection has worn off but no sooner than every 12 weeks.
Talk to your doctor today to see if BOTOX® may be right for you.
Possible Side Effects
The needles used for BOTOX® injections are fine, but you may experience some pain, swelling, and other reactions at the injection sites.
The most common side effects of BOTOX® include difficulty swallowing, upper respiratory infection, neck pain, and headache. Other side effects include increased cough, flu syndrome, back pain, inflammation of the nasal passages, dizziness, increased muscle tone or stiffness, soreness at injection site, general weakness/fatigue or lack of energy, oral dryness, speech disorder, fever, nausea, and drowsiness. Stiffness, numbness, double vision, drooping or falling of upper eyelid, and trouble breathing have also been reported.
