  2. Subjects with allergy or hypersensitivity to the Botulinum Toxin.
  3. Subjects who have changed the muscle relaxant taking for treatment within past 4 weeks prior to study participation.
  4. Subjects who have taken injection treatments using alcohol or phenol in upper limb within past 6 months prior to study participation.
  5. Subjects with general neuromuscular synaptic disorder(e.g. Myasthenia gravis, Lambert-Eaton syndrome, Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis).
  6. Subjects who have been injected with botulinum toxin within past 3 months before the injection.
  7. Subjects who are pregnant or lactating of disagreed to avoid pregnancy during 3 months study period.
