Since there are only a few major treatments for Botulism, the financial aspect of the treatment will be relatively straight forward. The financial costs will revolve around things such as a prolonged [[hospital]] stay as well as [[antitoxin]] [[therapy]]. It should also be noted that cosmetic Botox will be at a different cost.

The price of cosmetic [[Botox]] treatment varies widely based upon procedure, region, and other factors. A typical Botox injection will cost somewhere in the range of low to mid 100's. The variation will depend on where in the country the procedure is being done, how much of a demand there is for Botox in that region, and the availability of the injection. Some treatments may also cost more based on the specific treatment, for example, around a patient's eyes. This region will require more than 1 injection and will have a higher overall cost.
Many people will continue to use receive Botox treatment over a long period of time, which will produce a large total financial cost.
