Brief summary:
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of BOTOX® in the treatment of adult post-stroke lower limb spasticity.

Detailed description:

Arms:
arm 1: Double-Blind Study Phase (12 weeks): On Day 1, botulinum toxin Type A 300 U will be given by intramuscular injections into specified muscles of the lower limb, and an optional dose of 100 U may be injected into additional lower limb muscles. Open Label Study Phase: Up to 3 treatments with botulinum toxin Type A up to 400 U will be given by intramuscular injections to the lower limb approximately every 12 weeks over a 42 week period. arm 2: Double-Blind Study Phase (12 weeks): On Day 1, normal saline (placebo) will be given by intramuscular injections into specified muscles of the lower limb, and optional injections may be administered into additional lower limb muscles. Open Label Study Phase: Up to 3 treatments with botulinum toxin Type A up to 400 U will be given by intramuscular injections to the lower limb approximately every 12 weeks over a 42 week period.

Interventions: intervention 1: botulinum toxin Type A intervention 2: Normal Saline
