DescriptionNeurotoxin produced by fermentation of clostridium botulinum type B. The protein exists in noncovalent association with hemagglutinin and nonhemagglutinin proteins as a neurotoxin complex. The neurotoxin complex is recovered from the fermentation process.
Indication/DiseaseTo treat patients with cervical dystonia to reduce the severity of abnormal head position and neck pain associated with cervical dystonia.
PharmacodynamicsBotulinum Toxin Type B inhibits acetylcholine release at the neuromuscular junction via a three stage process: 1) Heavy Chain mediated neurospecific binding of the toxin, 2) internalization of the toxin by receptor-mediated endocytosis, and 3) ATP and pH dependent translocation of the Light Chain to the neuronal cytosol where it acts as a zinc-dependent endoprotease cleaving polypeptides essential for neurotransmitter release.
Mechanism of ActionBotulinum Toxin Type B binds and cleaves the synaptic Vesicle Associated Membrane Protein (VAMP, also known as synaptobrevin) which is a component of the protein complex responsible for docking and fusion of the synaptic vesicle to the presynaptic membrane, a necessary step to neurotransmitter release.
ToxicityOne unit of Botulinum Toxin Type B corresponds to the calculated median lethal intraperitoneal dose (LD50) in mice.
MetabolismNA
AbsorptionBotulinum Toxin Type B is not expected to be present in the peripheral blood at measurable levels following IM injection at the recommended doses as pharmacokinetic or ADME studies were not performed

Brand NameMyobloc
CompanySolstice Neurosciences
Brand DescriptionSolstice Neurosciences
Prescribed ForIt is used for reducing the severity of abnormal head position and neck pain associated with a certain neck problem (cervical dystonia)
Chemical NameNA
FormulationIt is supplied in 3.5-mL glass vials. Each single-use vial of formulated MYOBLOC contains 5,000 Units of botulinum toxin type B per milliliter in 0.05% human serum albumin, 0.01 M sodium succinate, and 0.1 M sodium chloride at approximately pH 5.6.

Route of AdministrationInjection
Recommended DosageThe recommended initial dose of MYOBLOC (botulinum toxin type b) for patients with a prior history of tolerating botulinum toxin injections is 2,500 to 5,000 Units divided among affected muscles. Patients without a prior history of tolerating botulinum toxin injections should receive lower initial dose.
ContraindicationMYOBLOC is contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to any botulinum toxin preparation or to any of the components in the formulation and in patients with infection at the proposed injection site
Side EffectsAnxiety; back pain; dizziness; drowsiness; dry eyes; dry mouth; flu-like symptoms; headache; increased cough; indigestion; nausea; neck pain; pain, redness, swelling, or tenderness at the injection site; runny nose; sensitivity to light; sweating; upset stomach.

Physical Appearance Clear and colourless to light yellow solution
Route of AdministrationIntramuSubcutaneousular Injection
Recommended DosageThe initial dose is 10,000 U and should be divided between the two to four most affected muscles. Data from clinical studies suggest that efficacy is dose dependent, but these trials, because they were not powered for a comparison, do not show a significant difference between 5000 U and 10,000 U.
ContraindicationHypersensitivity
Side EffectsDry mouth, dysphagia, dyspepsia, and injection site pain.
