My son is 8 and started violent neck tic when he was 7. Drugs did not work. We opted for Botox in his neck. Miracle. The tics were gone for 5 months. Then the neck movement started again, so we got him more Botox. In about a week, tics were gone. It is possible to get Botox every 3 months if needed. Such a wonderful relief. Here's a great link with more information on safe use of Botox for children with movement disorders: http://wuphysicians.wustl.edu/news.aspx?ID=736 Best wishes to all parents going through stressful times with tics. ----
