Can I take 500 mg amoxicillin and get Botox and Restylane injections on the same day?

Asked By:Peeples in La Jolla, CA

I will take 500 mg of amoxicilin as a prophylatic when I have my teeth cleaned because I have a congenital heart defect. I scheduled an appointment to have botox and restylane done afterward. Can I do this on the same day since I have no infection? Will the antibiotic interfere negatively with the botox and/or lessen its effects?
