Dysport is a muscle relaxant produced by Clostridium botulinum bacteria. It acts on
the junctions between the nerves and muscles, preventing the release of one of the
chemical messengers called acetylcholine from the nerve endings that would normally
cause the muscle to contract. If the messenger is prevented from being released this
results in a weakened muscle and helps to reduce some of the abnormal muscle contractions.
