I Am on Amoxcillin for a Chest Infection and I Have Had a Botox Injection in Forehead. Is This Ok?

In general, you should avoid the following prior to having a treatment with Botox:

1) NSAIDS
2) Ibuprofen
3) Vitamin E
4) Various Herbs and supplements (check with your provider on their recommendations)

The above may increase the likelihood of developing bruising. An antibiotic such as Amoxicillin will not interfere at all with your Botox treatment. I hope this helps, and good luck!

The two wouldn't be contraindicated, cosmetic Botox injections and taking an antibiotic at the same time. For all contraindications, please visit the website below.

Having Botox injections performed while on Amoxicillin should not be a problem. The antibiotic will not interfere with your procedure at all. I hope this helps, and I wish you the best of luck!

Amoxicillin does not react with Botox in any way. However keep in mind that Botox can cause 'flu like symptoms' in some patients. So, if you feel those symptoms a day after getting Botox ,those are temporary and you do not need any antibiotics for those symptoms.

There is no problem with getting a Botox treatment while taking amoxacillin.  Your results should not be affected in any way by the antibiotic.
