Allergan Inc. won U.S. clearance to market the wrinkle smoother Botox as a treatment for urinary incontinence.
The Food and Drug Administration approved the drug for people with overactive bladders who have neurologic conditions such as multiple sclerosis and spinal cord injuries, the agency said today in a statement. The medicine is injected into the bladder to increase its capacity by relaxing muscles.
Botox, also used to reduce facial wrinkles and treat neurological disorders, is the Irvine, California-based company’s top product with $1.4 billion in revenue last year. Sales of the drug for incontinence in people with MS and spinal cord injuries may reach $40 million in 2017, Seamus Fernandez, a Boston-based analyst at Leerink Swann & Co., said today in a note to investors.
This is a great news for many of us because I'm sure many women and men are fighting against this problem. I'm wondering where they gonna stop with this miraculous substance, because the uses of botox are more and more and in all cases botox is the best choice to treat affections like excessive sweating or migraines and now bladders.
