This study is a randomized, double blind, multi-center, active drug controlled, phase III clinical trial to compare the efficacy and safety of MEDITOXIN® versus BOTOX® in treatment of post stroke upper limb(wrist, finger, thumb) spasticity Approximately 196 subjects(1:1 group ratio)will be enrolled. Subjects will receive a single treatment of intramuscular Investigational product up to 360U. The subjects will be observed every 4 weeks until 12 weeks post injection. Outcome measures include Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS), Disability Assessment Scale (DAS), Global Assessment Scale(patient or caregiver/investigator) and Carer burden scale.
