Once you receive BOTOX^® neurotoxin treatment, you’ll start to feel the benefits soon, usually within a few days to a couple of weeks after receiving BOTOX^®. This relief may last for up to 3 months.

You may receive repeat BOTOX^® injections as long as:

• Your condition responds to BOTOX^®
• You do not have any allergic reactions to BOTOX^® or other significant side effects

Because symptoms can change over time, the amount and duration of relief you feel may vary. Although most people continue to respond to BOTOX^®, some people respond less over time. To maintain the best possible response to BOTOX^® over time, your doctor will give you the lowest effective dose. Also, he or she will determine the proper time between injections.

It’s a good idea to track your symptoms in a diary. This may help your doctor determine how best to manage your treatment. Also, by noting how your pain, muscle spasms, and posture improve over time, you can judge for yourself how well your treatment is working.
