BOTOX®

Botulinum toxin A

BOTOX® (or botulinum toxin A) is a neurotoxin that blocks the neuromuscular junction and can be used effectively to treat certain neurological conditions.

At Riddiford Neurology we currently only offer BOTOX® for chronic migraine.

BOTOX® (or botulinum toxin A) is a preventive treatment option for patients who suffer from chronic migraine. Preventive treatments are taken regularly to prevent headaches and migraine attacks before they even start. BOTOX® may be recommended if you have already tried other migraine preventive treatments without benefit. 

BOTOX® is also used to treat many movement disorders where muscles are overactive, such as hemifacial spasm and cervical dystonia (torticollis).
