Botox and Filler While on Antibiotic Medications?

November 14, 2009
Asked By:Arlie in Cinti.

I am getting Botox and filler between my brow ("11" lines) in two days. I am on a strong antiobiotic (Metronidazole and also ciprofloxacin). Is it okay to get Botox and filler on the same day while on this medication? I've had Botox before but the lines were too deep so not completely gone. Thought the filler might help. Quick answer please. Thanks.
