Xeomin

Introducing XEOMIN, a prescription medicine with versatile applications for various medical conditions. XEOMIN is primarily administered via injection, targeting specific areas to address different concerns:

1. Treatment of Chronic Drooling (Sialorrhea): XEOMIN effectively manages long-lasting drooling in both adults and children aged 2 to 17 years by targeting the glands responsible for saliva production.

2. Management of Muscle Stiffness in the Arm:

   • In Adults: XEOMIN helps alleviate increased muscle stiffness in the arm due to upper limb spasticity.
   • In Children (2 to 17 years): XEOMIN addresses muscle stiffness in the arm, excluding cases caused by cerebral palsy.

3. Relief for Cervical Dystonia (CD): XEOMIN is an effective solution for abnormal head position and neck pain associated with cervical dystonia, providing much-needed relief for adults.

4. Treatment for Blepharospasm: XEOMIN effectively targets abnormal eyelid spasms in adults, offering a solution for improved comfort and functionality.

    

   Storage Ability of XEOMIN

   XEOMIN, once reconstituted, should be stored in the original container in a refrigerator at temperatures between 2°C - 8°C (36°F - 46°F) for up to 24 hours until it is time for use. It is important to administer the reconstituted XEOMIN within this time frame and discard any unused portion after one injection session.

   Guidelines for Use

   1. Reconstitution: Prior to injection, each vial of XEOMIN must be reconstituted with sterile, preservative-free 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP. A needle of appropriate gauge (20-27 gauge) is recommended for this process.

   2. Injection Sites: XEOMIN is intended for intramuscular or intra-salivary gland injection only. The number of injection sites depends on the size of the muscle being treated and the volume of reconstituted XEOMIN injected.

   3. Single-Dose Vials: Each vial is for single-dose use only; any unused portion should be discarded immediately after administration.

   4. Timing Between Treatments: Repeat treatments should not occur sooner than every 12 to 16 weeks depending on the specific condition being treated.

   5. Caution in Administration: Care should be taken when injecting near sensitive structures such as arteries or organs, and healthcare providers should be familiar with the patient’s anatomy.

   Benefits of XEOMIN

   1. Purity: XEOMIN contains only the active ingredient incobotulinumtoxinA without accessory proteins, which may reduce the risk of allergic reactions compared to other botulinum toxin products like Botox.

   2. Convenience: The formulation does not require refrigeration before reconstitution, making it easier for healthcare providers to store and handle.

   3. Effectiveness in Treatment: XEOMIN has been shown to effectively treat various conditions including chronic sialorrhea (excessive drooling), upper limb spasticity, cervical dystonia, and blepharospasm (eyelid twitching).

   4. Reduced Risk of Resistance: Due to its lack of accessory proteins, patients may have a lower chance of developing resistance over time compared to other botulinum toxin treatments.

   5. Quick Onset: Some studies suggest that XEOMIN may show effects faster than other formulations due to its unique composition.

   6. Long-lasting Effects: The results from XEOMIN can last between three to six months depending on individual patient factors and treatment areas.

    

While XEOMIN has shown efficacy in various age groups, it's essential to note that its safety and effectiveness have not been established in children younger than 2 years of age for chronic sialorrhea and upper limb spasticity, as well as in individuals under 18 years of age for cervical dystonia or blepharospasm.
