Can I Have Botox if I Am on Humira for Arthritis?

Thank you for your question. Yes, you can have Botox while on arthritis medication. Please make sure to tell your injector what medications you are taking. Best of Luck!

Humira lower your immune system, but there are no contraindications to injecting botox while on this biologic. You should still be able to enjoy the benefits of botox!

As a dermatologist, I see no reason why you should not use Botox when using Humira. If in doubt, ask you rheumatologist for their opinion. 

I've not seen any problems with pts on immunosuppression having botox, but if there is any doubt you should ask your rheumatologist to be absolutely sure.

Botox, a neuromodulator, would have no known effect on Humira so I do not see problems with receiving Botox injections. 

There are no contraindictions for receiving Botox and getting Humira injections. I have several patients who have severe arthritis and receive Humira injections, and still enjoy the benefits of a Botox treatment.
