Is a Slight Persisent Little Cough a Side Effect After Using Dysport?

I first had dysport injection on forehead and glabellar area on Sept. 15. It was done in two doses because it was the first time I've ever had Dysport (I've never used Botox either). The second dose was on Oct 6 and have noticed that I've developed a little cough that has not gone away. Is this one of the side effects?

A: At Cosmetic Doses, Dysport Not Likely To Cause Systemic Side Effects

It is unlikely that your cough would be associated with Dysport treatment.  This is cold and flu season, even in Miami!  I would recommded checking in with your primary care provider

How Effective Are Dysport Injections for Hyperhidrosis?

What problems might arise from dysport injections with hyperhidrosis patients?

A: Dysport Is Effective For Hyperhidrosis

The use of the Botox brand of botulinum toxin has been part of the Hyperhidrosis treatment algorithm for many years.

A study looking at Dysport brand was published in Europe in 2009.  45 patients were treated with 120 units in each armpit.  The overwhelming majority of patients enjoyed complete absence of armpit sweating, and the effects lasted for 6 to 24 months. 

Another head to head study published in 2007 showed equivalent effects and longevity of the two products.
