Be more specific: What kind of an allergic reaction did you have? I have never seen anyone have an allergic reaction to Botox (although anything is possible).

Very unusual: "allergic" reactions to Botox or Dysport (botulinum toxin a) are very rare. I would discuss the signs and symptoms with your treating physician to verify that it was an apparent true allergic reaction. Then consider reporting it to the manufacturer. Obviously if disturbing enough to outweigh the intended benefits, strongly consider a different treatment option in the future.
