Background: Comparative studies of botulinum neurotoxin preparations to date have generally examined 2 preparations at prespecified dose ratios in relatively homogeneous groups of patients under controlled study conditions. It is unclear whether the differences in adverse-event rates that have been noted under these controlled conditions can be generalized to the broader population of cervical dystonia patients, who are treated with a wider range of doses in a variety of settings.
Objective: We conducted a systematic review and analysis of the published literature to compare rates of dysphagia and dry mouth in studies of botulinum neurotoxin products.
