Botulinum toxin type A
BiologicalIn this long-term extension study, a dose of 500 units Dysport was administered by intramuscular injection into the clinically indicated neck muscles in a single dosing session in the first treatment cycle. This was the same dose as given in the preceding study NCT00257660 (Y-47-52120-051). Based on individual safety & efficacy, subjects could then receive up to 3 subsequent injections with doses titrated in 250 unit steps, to a minimum of 250 units and a maximum of 1000 units. Retreatment occurred approximately 12-16 weeks after the previous injection, with the exact timing based on clinical need.
