or hyperactive muscle included the release of acetylcholine from motor nerve endings, thus, inducing a temporary
paralysis of a targeted muscle.

In the 1960's and 1970's, Dr. Alan Scott, M.D. of the Smith-Kettlewell Eye Research Foundation began effectiveness
testing with monkeys to determine if the drug might have effective therapeutic modalities.

For the next 20-30 years, Dr. Scott collaborated with Dr. Schantz of the University of Wisconsin to
further develop product samples.3

In the late 1970's, Dr. Scott formed a company named Oculinum, where he continued to study the drug
with monkeys and in 1978 received permission from the Food & Drug Administration to test on human clinical studies.
In 1988, Allergan acquired the rights to distribute Dr. Scott's Botox' Toxin Type A product. The current manufacturer, Allergan Inc., is located in Irvine, California.

The idea of injecting your face every three months, at a cost of up to $1,200 per injection, with toxins,
given known side effects and the significant discomfort of the injections, from a product continually tested on
monkeys should drive consumer's research to other alternatives.

Webster's dictionary confirms toxins are 'any of various poisons produced by microorganisms and
causing certain diseases' or 'any poisons secreted by plants or animals'.4
