Mixing Botox for hyperhydrosis

Anifat Balogun, MD answers: Is Botox mixed with any other solution for hyperhidrosis?

Do you mix Botox (100mg) with any other solution for treatment of hyperhydrosis on the scalp and head?

Botox is reconstituted with sterile saline prior to being use for treatment of dynamic facial wrinkles and for treatment of hyperhydrosis of the underarms, scalp, hands and feet. I know of no other solutions recommended for use in the reconstitution of Botox.

Helpful?

 Botox comes as a fine white dust in its bottle and is reconstituted with saline prior to use.  I am not aware of any difference in this regardless of where you are going to use it.
