Botulinum toxin type A (BOTOX) for treatment of migraine

Seminars in Cutaneous Medicine and Surgery, 2001
An open-label study and 2 double-blind, placebo-controlled studies have provided supporting evidence of botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) as an effective, well-tolerated treatment for migraine. Observed durations of benefit were consistent with known properties of BTX-A.

Use of botulinum toxin type F injections to treat torticollis in patients with immunity to botulinum toxin type A

Movement Disorders, 1993
AbstractFifteen patients with torticollis who had been treated with repeated injections of botulinum toxin type A (botox A) developed antibodies to the toxin. This resulted in loss of benefit in the 13 patients who had improved with botox A injections and failure to develop muscle atrophy after injection in all 15 patients.
