Summary

This study looked at why people who had a stroke stop getting botulinum toxin (Botox) injections for muscle stiffness. Researchers reviewed records of 81 patients over 12 years and found that most received only one injection. The main reason for stopping was that patients were not aware they needed ongoing treatment.
