Core Tip |
In this overview, we describe that botulinum toxins (BTXs) were very useful to reduce spasticity in stroke patients. Moreover, we introduce studies on appropriate effective and safe injection methods; pilot studies that evaluated combined rehabilitation and BTX treatment; and adverse events after BTX injection, including risk factors of neutralizing antibodies. |
