FAQs

MYOBLOC is a prescription medicine that is injected into neck muscles and used to treat the abnormal head position and neck pain that happen with cervical dystonia (CD) in adults.

It is not known whether MYOBLOC is safe or effective in children. It is not known whether MYOBLOC is safe or effective for other types of muscle spasms.

MYOBLOC can cause serious side effects that can be life threatening, including problems swallowing, speaking, or breathing and spread of toxin effects. It can also cause allergic reactions. Symptoms of an allergic reaction to MYOBLOC may include: itching, rash, redness, swelling, wheezing, trouble breathing, or dizziness or feeling faint. Call your doctor or get medical help right away if you have any of these problems after treatment with MYOBLOC.

The most common side effects of MYOBLOC in people with cervical dystonia include: dry mouth, trouble swallowing (dysphagia), injection site discomfort or pain, headache. These are not all the possible side effects of MYOBLOC, please see the full Important Safety Information.

Do not take MYOBLOC if you:

  • Are allergic to MYOBLOC or any of the ingredients in MYOBLOC; see the end of the Medication Guide for a list of ingredients
  • Had an allergic reaction to any other botulinum toxin product such as BOTOX® , BOTOX® Cosmetic (onabotulinumtoxinA), DYSPORT® (abobotulinumtoxinA), or XEOMIN® (incobotulinumtoxinA)
  • Have a skin infection at the planned injection site

Cervical dystonia (CD) is a neurological movement disorder that causes the muscles in your neck to contract (tighten) involuntarily. This muscle tightening can cause you to hold your head and neck in painful, abnormal positions. These positions can cause you to face challenges and discomfort in your day-to-day life.

Normally, your brain sends chemical signals to your head and neck muscles to keep their movements smooth and controlled. In patients with CD, these signals work improperly. When acetylcholine, one of the chemical signals, is released at above-normal amounts, it causes muscles to be tense and overactive.

In some cases of CD, causes can be linked to neck, head, and shoulder injuries, and certain drugs. While the exact cause is not clear, research is still being conducted to explore the factors that can contribute to CD.

Typically, CD symptoms are gradual and include:

  • Abnormal and painful turning of head and neck
    • Increasing neck muscle tightness or spasms
  • Neck pain
  • Uncomfortable pulling in the neck
  • Tremors of the head and neck
  • Limited range of motion

Pain is a common complaint of most patients with CD:

  • 75% of patients with CD reported neck pain as a common symptom
    • Of those patients, nearly 7 out of 10 said the pain was moderate or severe
  • CD pain may interfere with your work and daily life
