| Summary: | Botulinum Toxin (BoNT), a neurotoxin
known for many years for its lethal nature has
been in use for many cosmetic purposes for last
many years. Its use in many medical problems
especially chronic neurological problems has
been well established in recent years. BoNT is
a useful symptomatic treatment for many neu-
rological disorders, and is emerging as one of
the leading modes of treatments in the new sub-
specialty in neurology called “Interventional
neurology.” We have also been using BoNT
regularly for therapeutic purposes in different
neurological diseases with good success rate for
last few years. We think use of BoNT-A needs to
be encouraged in our country to provide relief to
the patients suffering from many of the chronic
disabling neurological problems. |
