Botox-maker Sued in Orange County Superior Court

Jury selection began today in the first of 15 lawsuits against Botox-maker Allergan, according to the Orange County Register (via LA Legal Pad).

This particular suit was brought by the mother of a 7-year-old who died after receiving Botox injections to ease muscle spasms caused by her cerebral palsy.

Allergan has denied wrongdoing and says the girl's death was caused by a bacterial infection. Botox has not been explicitly approved by the FDA to treat muscle spasms, but doctors are allowed to prescribe it for medical purposes.

Botox(sometimes known as botax) injections are commonly performed and generally safe. Just like any other medical procedure, Botox is not without its share of side effects. The side effects are not life-threatening but they can affect your quality of life. If Botox side effects occur, they're usually temporary starting within the first days of injection, but may persist for several months.
