Every person’s treatment needs are unique. The neurotoxin therapy you choose should reflect that.

XEOMIN® helps your patients get backto being more than their cervical dystonia, even when treatment goals seem out of reach.

Let XEOMIN be the first-line treatment option that helps them be defined by who theyare - not the condition they have.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATIONINDICATIONS AND USAGEXEOMIN® (incobotulinumtoxinA) for injection, for intramuscular or intraglandular use, is a prescription medicine that is used to treat adults with:• chronic adult sialorrhea• upper limb spasticity• cervical dystonia• blepharospasm who were previously treated with onabotulinumtoxinA (Botox®)

Please see the next page for Important Safety Information.Please visit XEOMIN.com for Full Prescribing Information, including BOXED WARNING.

WARNING: DISTANT SPREAD OF TOXIN EFFECTSee full prescribing information for complete BOXED WARNING.

The effects of XEOMIN and all botulinum toxin products may spread from the area of injection to produce

symptoms consistent with botulinum toxin effects. These symptoms have been reported hours to weeks after injection. Swallowing and breathing difficulties can be life threatening and there have been reports of death.

The risk of symptoms is probably greatest in children treated for spasticity but symptoms can also occur in adults, particularly in those patients who have underlying conditions that would predispose them to these symptoms.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION (continued)CONTRAINDICATIONS• Hypersensitivity reactions have been reported with botulinum

toxin products (anaphylaxis, serum sickness, urticaria, soft tissue edema, and dyspnea). If serious and/or immediate hypersensitivity reactions occur further injection of XEOMIN should be discontinued and appropriate medical therapy immediately instituted. XEOMIN is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to any botulinum toxin preparation or to any of the components in the formulation.

• Use in patients with an infection at the injection site could lead to severe local or disseminated infection. XEOMIN is contraindicated in the presence of infection at the proposed injection site(s).

WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS•

Dysphagia may persist for several months, which may require use of a feeding tube. Aspiration may result from severe dysphagia . [See BOXED WARNING].

• Individuals with peripheral motor neuropathic diseases, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or neuromuscular junctional disorders (e.g., myasthenia gravis or Lambert-Eaton syndrome) should be monitored particularly closely when given botulinum toxin. Patients with neuromuscular disorders

including severe dysphagia and respiratory compromise from typical doses of XEOMIN.

• Cervical Dystonia: Treatment with botulinum toxins may weaken neck muscles that serve as accessory muscles of ventilation. This may result in critical loss of breathing capacity in patients with respiratory disorders who may have become dependent upon these accessory muscles. There have been

including respiratory failure, in patients with cervical dystonia treated with botulinum toxin products. Patients with smaller neck muscle mass and patients who require bilateral injections into the sternocleidomastoid muscles are at greater risk of dysphagia. Limiting the dose injected into the sternocleidomastoid muscle may decrease the occurrence of dysphagia.

• Blepharospasm: Injection of XEOMIN into the orbicularis oculi muscle may lead to reduced blinking and corneal exposure with possible ulceration or perforation. Lower lid injections should not be repeated if diplopia occurred with previous botulinum toxin injections.

• donor screening and product manufacturing processes, it carries an extremely remote risk for transmission of viral diseases and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD). No cases of transmission of viral diseases or CJD have ever been reported for albumin.

ADVERSE REACTIONSChronic Sialorrhea: The most commonly observed adverse reactions (incidence ≥3% of patients and greater than placebo) for XEOMIN were tooth extraction (5%), dry mouth (4%), diarrhea (4%), hypertension (4%), fall (3%), bronchitis (3%), dysphonia (3%), back pain (3%) and dry eye (3%).Upper Limb Spasticity: The most commonly observed adverse reactions (incidence ≥2% of patients and greater than placebo) for XEOMIN were seizure (3%), nasopharyngitis (2%), dry mouth (2%), and upper respiratory tract infection (2%).Cervical Dystonia: The most commonly observed adverse reactions (incidence ≥5% of patients and greater than placebo) for XEOMIN 120 Units and XEOMIN 240 Units, respectively, were: dysphagia (13%, 18%), injection pain site (9%, 4%), neck pain (7%, 15%), muscle weakness (7%, 11%), and musculoskeletal pain (7%, 4%). Blepharospasm: The most commonly observed adverse reactions (incidence ≥5% of patients and twice greater than placebo) for XEOMIN were eyelid ptosis (19%), dry mouth (16%), dry eye (16%), visual impairment (12%), diarrhea (8%), headache (7%), dyspnea (5%) and nasopharyngitis (5%).DRUG INTERACTIONSCo-administration of XEOMIN and aminoglycoside antibiotics or other agents interfering with neuromuscular transmission, e.g., tubocurarine-type muscle relaxants, should only be performed

the toxin. Use of anticholinergic drugs after administration of XEOMIN

time or within several months of each other is unknown. Excessive neuromuscular weakness may be exacerbated by administration of another botulinum toxin prior to the

botulinum toxin.USE IN PREGNANCYThere are no adequate data on the developmental risk associated with the use of XEOMIN in pregnant women. XEOMIN should be used during pregnancy only if the potential

PUSHING THE BOUNDARIES OF REHABILITATION

Penn Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation is delighted to be part of the Association of Academic Physiatrists meeting in Puerto Rico.

As the first program of its kind in the nation, Penn PM&R has pioneered some of

the most essential treatments and technological advancements for rehabilitation

medicine and continues to optimize patient outcomes, advance research and

elevate PM&R education.

Our neurorehabilitation team at Penn led the assessment and rehabilitation

of US government personnel stationed in Cuba with unexplained

neurological symptoms. (Swanson RL 2nd, Hampton S, Green-McKenzie J, et al. Neurological Manifestations Among US Government Personnel Reporting Directional Audible and Sensory Phenomena in Havana, Cuba. JAMA. 2018 Mar 20;319(11):1125-1133. PMID: 29450484)

Our new nanotechnology initiative in PM&R in partnership with the Penn

Singh Center holds great promise for new rehabilitation technologies.
