Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The safety and efficacy of Mentor Purified Toxin, Botulinum Toxin Type A, Purified Neurotoxin, injected intramuscularly into the neck, is being evaluated as a treatment for painful and non-painful spasmodic torticollis/cervical dystonia. It is hypothesized that treatment will decrease symptom severity and will not have any significant side effects.
