A member asked:

What are the side effects of botox for the treatment of nondiabetic gastroparesis?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unknown...: There are a few studies looking at the effectiveness of Botox injection of the pylorus in patients with idiopathic gastroparesis and none showed it to be any better than placebo. There were no significant side effects of Botox injection of the pylorus in the studies. Good luck!
