Antazoline is used for the treatment of complications of Botox Cosmetic. Botox is typically injection into the Corrugator muscle in order to reduce the appearance of [forehead wrinkles][1]. At times, Botox can migrate inferiorly and cause the temporary paralysis of the Levator muscle, which is repsonsible for opeing of the upper eyelid. This cause the drooping of the affected upper eyelid. Antazoline, being a Alpha-agonist, stimultates the Muller muslces of the upper eyelid to help raise the upper eyelid and prevent excessive drooping. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.172.207.2 (talk) 22:27, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
