Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

I recieved 30u of cosmetic botox by cosmetic surgeon. I informed him that I was being treated for lyme disease with zithromycin and he said it was not a problem. I subsequently had a severe reaction and have had to discontinue my lyme treatment - possibly until the effects of botox are gone. Do not get botox if you are currently on antibiotics!I had 30u of cosmetic botox in my forehead and crows feet 3 weeks ago. At the time, I was taking zithromycin and mepron and subsequently had a reaction to the botox of severe flu-like symptoms, extreme anxiety, sweats, difficulty sleeping, loss of appetite. I stopped the antibiotics but am still having anxiety. I am wondering if I can start biaxim and tetracycline for lyme disease or can these still intensify the effects of the botox? Also, can botox still migrate from these areas 3 weeks later? I occasionally feel like my voice box is quivering and it feels like I will lose voice.
