7) Blepharospasm: Reduced blinking from injection of botulinum toxin into orbicularis muscle can lead to corneal exposure, persist- ent epithelial defect and corneal ulceration, especially in patients with VII nerve disorders. In the use of other botulinum toxin product for treatment of blepharospasm, one case of corneal perforation in an aphakic eye requiring corneal grafting has occurred because of this effect. Careful testing of corneal sensation in eyes previously operated upon should be conducted and injection into the lower lid area should be avoided to reduce the risk of ectropion. Vigorous treatment of any epithelial defect should be employed. This may require protective drops, ointment, therapeutic soft contact lenses, or closure of the eye by patching or 8) Lack of Interchangeability between botulinum toxin products: Since the potency units of botulinum toxin are specific to individual products, they are not interchangeable with other botulinum toxin product. Therefore, units of biological activity of botulinum tox- in cannot be compared or converted into units of any other botulinum toxin product assessed with other specific assay method.
9) Injections in or near vulnerable anatomic structures: Care should be taken when injecting in or near vulnerable anatomic struc- tures. Serious adverse reactions, including fatal outcomes, have been reported in patients who had received other botulinum toxin product injected directly into salivary glands, oro-lingual-pharyngeal region, esophagus and stomach. Some patients had pre-existing dysphagia or significant debility. (Safety and effectiveness have not been established for indications pertaining to these injection sites.) Pneumothorax associated with injection procedure has been reported following the administration of other botulinum toxin near the thorax. Caution is warranted when injecting in proximity to the lung, particularly the apices.
10) Pulmonary effects in patients with compromised respiratory status treated for upper limb spasticity or for detrusor overactivity associated with a neurologic condition: In patients with upper limb spasticity and respiratory disorder, upper respiratory tract infections and reduced lung function were reported when administered with other botulinum toxin. Reduced lung functions were also reported in patients treated with other botulinum toxin for detrusor overactivity associated with a neurologic condition.
11) Bronchitis and upper respiratory tract infections in patients treated for upper limb spasticity: Bronchitis was reported more frequently as an adverse reaction in patients treated with other botulinum toxin for upper limb spasticity, compared to placebo. In patients with reduced lung function treated for upper limb spasticity, upper respiratory tract infections were also reported more frequently in patients treated with botulinum toxins, compared to placebo.

The initial recommended dose is 1.25-2.5U (0.05 mL to 0.1 mL volume at each site) injected into the medial and lateral pre-tarsal orbicularis oculi of the upper lid and into the lateral pre-tarsal orbicularis oculi of the lower lid.

11. Precautions in administration
Prior to injection, reconstitute freeze-dried this product with a preservative-free, sterile saline. 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection is the recommended diluent. Draw up the proper amount of diluent in the syringe of appropriate size. Since this product is denatured by bubbling or similar violent agitation, the diluent should be injected gently into the vial. Discard the vial if a vacuum does not pull the diluent into the vial. Record the date and time of reconstitution on the space of the label. This product should be administered within 24 hours after reconstitution. During this period, reconstituted product should be stored in a refrigerator (2-8°C). Reconstituted product should be clear, colorless and free of particulate matter. Parenteral drug products should be inspected visually for particulate matter and discoloration prior to administration. Because this product and the diluent do not contain any preservative, one vial of this product should be used for a single patient.
12. Precautions in storage and handling
Unopened vials of this drug product should be stored in a refrigerator (2-8°C). Reconstituted product may be stored in a refrigerator (2-8°C) for up to 24 hours after reconstitution. For safe disposal, unused vials should be sterilized after dissolution in a small amount of water. Containers used (such as vials and syringes) should also be sterilized. Any residuals in vials or syringes should be inactivated using dilute hypochlorite solution (0.5%).

In addition, the muscle may atrophy, axonal placebo group within the first week after treatment.
sprouting may occur, and extra junctional acetylcholine receptors may develop. There is evidence that reinnervation of the muscle may occur, thus slowly reversing muscle denervation produced by this product.
10) Detrusor overactivity associated with a neurologic condition: In double-blind, placebo-control ed study of other botulinum toxin The paralysis activity of botulinum toxin is effective for the relief of excessive abnormal contraction associated with blepharospasm. product, the following adverse reactions were frequently reported within 12 weeks of injection for detrusor overactivity associ- When injected into neck muscles, other botulinum toxin injection acts to provide relief from both objective signs and subjective symptoms of spasmodic torticollis (cervical dystonia). These improvements may include reduced pain/discomfort, reduced head rota- tion, reduced shoulder elevation, decreased size and strength of hypertrophic muscles. The efficacy of other botulinum toxin product <Table> Adverse reactions more frequently (≥2%) reported in patients injected with other botulinum toxin product than in in deviations of over 50 prism diopters, restrictive strabismus, Duane’s syndrome with lateral rectus weakness, and secondary strabis- placebo-treated patients within the first 12 weeks after intradetrusor injection in double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trials mus caused by prior surgical over-recession of the antagonist has not been clearly established or repeated injections may be required for treatment of such conditions. For other botulinum toxin product, it was reported that botulinum toxin is ineffective in chronic paralytic strabismus and only surgical procedure is effective in reducing conjunctiva antagonist contracture. The presence of antibod- ies to botulinum toxin type A may reduce the effectiveness of botulinum toxin therapy. In clinical studies, reduced effectiveness due to antibody production was observed in one patient with blepharospasm receiving 3 doses of botulinum toxin (92 U in total) over a 6-week period and in several patients with torticollis who received multiple doses experimentally (over 300 U) in one month. For this reason, the dose of this product for blepharospasm and strabismus should be kept in any case below 200 U in one month.

The following adverse reaction rates with other botulinum toxin product 200 U were reported at any time following initial injec- tion and prior to re-injection or study exit (median duration of 44 weeks of exposure): urinary tract infections (49%), urinary retention (17%), fatigue (6%), constipation (4%), muscular weakness (4%), dysuria (4%), fall (3%), gait disturbance (3%), Manufacturer : HUGEL, Inc.

11) Post-marketing experience in foreign markets: There have been spontaneous reports of death, sometimes associated with dys- phagia, pneumonia, and/or other significant debility or anaphylaxis, after treatment with other botulinum toxin product. ※ You can get updated information from our web site (www.hugel.co.kr).
[see 2) and 4) of “1. Warnings” under “Precautions”]. There have also been reports of adverse reactions involving the cardiovascular system, including arrhythmia and myocardial infarction, some with fatal outcomes. The exact relationship of these events to the botulinum toxin injection has not been New onset or recurrent seizures have also been reported, typically in patients who are predisposed to experiencing these events. The exact relationship of these events to the botulinum toxin injection has not been established. The following adverse reactions have been identified during postapproval use of other botulinum toxin product: abdominal pain, anorexia, brachial plexopathy, diarrhea, dyspnea, facial palsy, facial paresis, hyperhidrosis, hypoacusis, hypoaesthesia, localized numbness, malaise, muscle weakness, myalgia, paresthesia, pyrexia, radiculopathy, skin rash (including erythema multiforme and psoriasiform eruption), tinnitus, vertigo, visual disturbances and vomiting.
Because these events were reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure
