The article presents an analysis of modern data on the antinociceptive effectiveness of botulinum toxin type A (BTA) in rheumatic diseases (RD). The prospects for the use of BTA in the treatment of pain in different RDs are discussed. We searched for publications in the Medline, Pubmed, Cochrane Library databases.
