It is definitely interesting to look into. I imagine your paper needs to be at least 10 or so pages, so my advice to you is research what interests you, otherwise you will suffer writing such a paper, and any paper at all. Papers are also proven to be better when they are written by people who are interested in the topic, and it also reflects in the paper itself. Since you didn't state what was the actual research paper assignment or for what class it was assigned, I suggest sticking with something that you are are interested in. Don't forget that it will take you quite a while to do all of your research. Good luck! |

Like most of drug side effects, the mechanism is not fully understood. Some people develop it while most people get away unscathed. They are mostly to do with probability of the occurrence. Please check this info site http://www.drugs.com/sfx/botox -side-effects.html#system_3312 2 |
