I have had Hodgkins Lymphoma and have been treated for 5 months with chemotherapy drugs (vinblastine, doxorubicin & dacarbazine). This finished 1 month ago and I currently only take acyclovir & co-trimoxazole. Am I safe to have botox in my face now?
Answer: Botox after Chemotherapy Thank you for your question. It not advisable to have Botox if you are immunosuppressed after the chemotherapy. Please ask you doctors when they estimate your immune system will recover before having Botox. Best of Luck!
