Purpose: IncobotulinumtoxinA is used for treating certain movement disorders but lacks published clinical data on use in chronic migraine.
Methods: This retrospective case series was performed by using electronic chart reviews on patients receiving incobotulinumtoxinA for migraine at the Veterans Affairs San Diego Healthcare System between September 2013 and March 2014. Patients were administered 150 units each, with similar methods used for onabotulinumtoxinA injections.
