XEOMIN (zeo-min) is a neurotoxin medicine that is injected into muscles and used to treat adults with blepharospasm (who have been previously treated with Botox® [onabotulinumtoxinA]).  The active ingredient in XEOMIN is a type of botulinum toxin called incobotulinumtoxinA.

Blepharospasms can make everyday tasks quite difficult. XEOMIN works to interrupt signals from neurons that control the eyelid muscles. This interupption helps decrease the abnormal eyelid movements associated with Blepharospasms

How often will I need treatment with XEOMIN?

The effects of XEOMIN usually last about 12 weeks, but may last significantly longer or shorter in individual patients.

How is XEOMIN given?

XEOMIN is injected directly into the affected muscles. During your consultation, it will be decided how many muscles need to be injected and the dose per muscle.

How long until I see the effects?

For most people, the first effects of XEOMIN are typically seen within 7 days, but individual results may vary.
