ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to methods for enhancing the therapeutic effects of a neurotoxin, e.g., abotulinumtoxin, where the methods comprise a “wash-down” (e.g., a decreased intake) of a current pain medication and an administration of a neurotoxin. In some embodiments, the present inventions relates to methods for enhancing the therapeutic effects of a neurotoxin for treating pain, e.g., headache pain.
