Botulinum toxin type A, the active ingredient in DYSPORT, is a purified neurotoxin type A complex produced by fermentation of the bacterium Clostridium botulinum type A, Hall Strain. It is purified from the culture supernatant by a series of precipitation, dialysis, and chromatography steps. The neurotoxin complex is composed of the neurotoxin, hemagglutinin proteins and non-toxin non-hemagglutinin protein. DYSPORT® (abobotulinumtoxinA) for injection is a sterile, lyophilized powder supplied in a single-dose vial for reconstitution intended for intramuscular injection. Each vial contains 300 Units or 500 Units of lyophilized abobotulinumtoxinA, human serum albumin (125 mcg) and lactose (2.5 mg). DYSPORT may contain trace amounts of cow's milk proteins [ see Contraindications (4) and Warnings and Precautions (5.3) ]. ]. The primary release procedure for DYSPORT uses a cell-based potency assay to determine the potency relative to a reference standard. The assay and reference material are specific to DYSPORT. One unit of DYSPORT corresponds to the calculated median lethal intraperitoneal dose (LD 50 ) in mice. Due to specific details of the assay system, such as vehicle, dilution scheme and laboratory protocols, Units of biological activity of DYSPORT cannot be converted into Units of any other botulinum toxin or any toxin assessed with any other specific assay method.
