Patients experiencing adequate paralysis of the target muscle that require subsequent injections should receive a dose comparable to the initial dose.
Acetylcholine activates muscles, so blocking it causes muscle relaxation and paralysis. Botox injections place botulinum toxin directly into a specific muscle. There it has a direct effect on acetylcholine in nerve synapses, blocking signals that would normally cause the muscle to contract.
Please see the Patient Information Guide available at for list of these events. Tell your health care provider about any side effects that bother you or do not go away.
Botox is given by a healthcare provider as a series of tiny injections into the affected muscle(s) or skin.
BOTOX and BOTOX Cosmetic contain the same active ingredient in the same formulation, but with different labeled Indications and Usage. Therefore, adverse reactions observed with the use of BOTOX Cosmetic also have the potential to be observed with the use of BOTOX.
O resultado é a reduçãeste da flacidez dos tecidos e este rejuvenescimento da pele por modo conterraneo e isento qualquer cicatriz ou marca.
You should minimize strenuous activity and avoid extensive sun or heat exposure for about 24 hours after treatment and until any swelling or redness has resolved.
An appropriately sized needle (e.g., 25-30 gauge) may be used for superficial muscles, and a longer 22 gauge needle may be used for deeper musculature. Localization of the involved muscles with techniques such as needle electromyographic guidance, nerve stimulation, or ultrasound is recommended. Repeat BOTOX treatment may be administered when the effect of a previous injection has diminished, but generally no sooner than 12 weeks after the previous injection. The degree and pattern of muscle spasticity at the time of re-injection may necessitate alterations in the dose of BOTOX and muscles to be injected.
Treatment with BOTOX and other botulinum toxin products can result in swallowing or breathing difficulties. Patients with pre-existing swallowing or breathing difficulties may be more susceptible to these complications. In most cases, this is a consequence of weakening of muscles in the area of injection that are involved in breathing or oropharyngeal muscles that control swallowing or breathing [see Warnings and Precautions (5.
BOTOX is an acetylcholine release inhibitor and a neuromuscular blocking agent indicated for: Treatment of overactive bladder (OAB) with symptoms of urge urinary incontinence, urgency, and frequency, in adults who have an inadequate response to or are intolerant of an anticholinergic medication (1.1)
Previous Botox History: If you've had Botox before, your injector will consider how you responded to previous treatments. Did the standard dose work well? Did it wear off quickly? Did you need a touch-up? This history helps refine the dosage for subsequent sessions.
Several other types of spastic movement disorders and some other long-term conditions not effectively treated by other types of medical treatment also have reported success with botulinum toxins. The medical uses for botulinum toxins are likely to expand in the future.
The initial radiesse dose for a patient without prior use of BOTOX should be at a lower dose, with subsequent dosing adjusted based on individual response. Limiting the Completa dose injected into the sternocleidomastoid muscle to cem Units or less may decrease the occurrence of dysphagia.
Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, the adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in clinical practice.
