After decades, a new neuromodulator category has arrived. DAXXIFY® is the first and only peptide-powered, FDA-approved frown line treatment with a median duration of 6 months.1-9*
Conventional frown line treatments last a median of approximately 3-4 months.5-7,10
Nearly 90% of patients want a longer-lasting treatment.10
Most patients get fewer than 2 neuromodulator treatments a year.10
Patients are left untreated for 4-6 months of the year.5-7,10
The effects of DAXXIFY® and all botulinum toxin products may spread from the area of injection to produce symptoms consistent with botulinum toxin effects. These symptoms have been reported hours to weeks after injection. Swallowing and breathing difficulties can be life threatening and there have been reports of death. DAXXIFY® is not approved for the treatment of spasticity or any conditions other than glabellar lines.
INDICATION
DAXXIFY® (daxibotulinumtoxinA-Ianm) injection is an acetylcholine release inhibitor and neuromuscular blocking agent indicated for the temporary improvement in the appearance of moderate to severe glabellar lines associated with corrugator and/or procerus muscle activity in adult patients.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Contraindications DAXXIFY® contraindications include hypersensitivity to any botulinum toxin preparation or any of the components in the formulation and infection at the injection site(s).
Warnings and Precautions Please refer to Boxed Warning for Distant Spread of Toxin Effect.
The potency Units of DAXXIFY® are not interchangeable with other preparations of other botulinum toxin products. Recommended dose and frequency of administration should not be exceeded. Patients should seek immediate medical attention if respiratory, speech or swallowing difficulties occur. Use caution when administering to patients with pre-existing cardiovascular disease. Concomitant neuromuscular disorders may exacerbate clinical effects of treatment.
Adverse Reactions The most commonly observed adverse reactions (≥1%) were headache (6%), eyelid ptosis (2%) and facial paresis (1%).
Drug Interactions Co-administration of DAXXIFY® and aminoglycoside antibiotics, anticholinergic agents or any other agents interfering with neuromuscular transmission or muscle relaxants should only be performed with caution as the effect of DAXXIFY® may be potentiated. The effect of administering different botulinum neurotoxins during course of treatment with DAXXIFY® is unknown.
Use in Specific Populations DAXXIFY® is not recommended for use in children or pregnant women.
*At least 50% of patients in SAKURA 1 and SAKURA 2 had none or mild frown lines for 24 weeks (6 months) and 23.9 weeks (6 months) or longer, respectively, per both investigator's and patient's assessments. 5% of patients in SAKURA 1 and 3% of patients in SAKURA 2 had none or mild frown lines at 9 months per investigator’s assessment. In SAKURA 1, SAKURA 2, and SAKURA 3 OLS Treatments 1 and 2, 7.5%, 5.4%, 17.4%, and 11.6% of patients, respectively, had not returned to baseline severity at 9 months per both investigator’s and patient’s assessments.
