Health warning issued after UK cases of life-threatening condition linked to Botox

ENGLAND, JUL 18 – Thirty-eight botulism cases linked to unlicensed Botox-like products used in cosmetic procedures have caused serious symptoms, prompting health agencies to urge precautions and product verification.

  • An urgent warning has been issued over a life-threatening paralysing infection called iatrogenic botulism linked to Botox injections, with 38 cases across the UK.
  • Some victims have suffered difficulty swallowing, slurred speech, and breathing issues requiring respiratory support after undergoing botulinum toxin treatments.
  • Botulinum toxin should only be administered by registered professionals, as buying it elsewhere risks receiving falsified or unlicensed products, the UK Health Security Agency warned.
