Neuronox 100 – Trusted Botulinum Toxin Type A for Aesthetic and Medical Applications
1. Overview & Manufacturer
Neuronox 100 is a botulinum toxin type A product manufactured by Medytox Inc., one of South Korea’s leading biopharmaceutical companies. Recognized globally for its quality, safety, and cost-effectiveness, Neuronox is widely used in facial aesthetics and therapeutic neurology, making it a competitive alternative to brands like Botox® (Allergan).
2. Composition & Packaging
-
Each vial contains 100 units of Clostridium botulinum toxin type A, in lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder form
-
Requires reconstitution with 0.9% sterile sodium chloride (NaCl) prior to injection
-
Manufactured under strict GMP standards, ensuring high purity and low protein content to reduce immunogenicity
3. Mechanism of Action
Neuronox works by blocking the release of acetylcholine at neuromuscular junctions. This results in temporary relaxation of the targeted muscle, which:

Controls involuntary muscle activity

Treats conditions caused by overactive glands or muscles
