What if Botox is mistakenly mixed with a reconstitution solution that is only benzyl alcohol and has no sodium chloride?

What will happen other than burning sensation when injected? Does the Botox become inactive or lose potency. Does it defuse in the skin the same way the sodium chloride will? Will the patient have a delayed reaction?
