Gentamicin may cause a problem if Botox is used but I am not aware of macrobid being a problem with concurrent use of botox.
Have you consulted with your provider? I don't see a reason to wait to have cosmetic Botox treatments.
There is no contraindications to proceeding with botox injections while taking those antibiotics unless you have a skin infection in the area to have Botox placed.
I am not aware of any contraindication to using Botox with macrobid antibiotics, so I believe it would be fine to have the Botox treatment while you are on the antibiotic.
You don't need to wait to receive Botox. There are very few medical conditions and medications that contraindicate receiving a Botox treatment, and taking a macrolide antibiotic is not one of them. Best of luck!
Botox should not be used if the individual is taking aminoglycoside antibiotics. Most of these are the "mycin" drugs. Macrobid is not an aminoglycoside but you should not have Botox injections if you have a current infection, especially an upper respiratory infection.
There is no contraindication or interaction when using Botox along with oral or topical antibiotics, so go ahead and get your next treatment....unless ofcourse the infection is anywhere that Botox might be injected. Dr. Benjamin Barankin, Toronto Dermatology Centre.
To date there has been no published literature on interactions between botox and any oral antibiotics.
Technically, there is no contraindication. However, if you are going to worry about whether any redness at the injection site is related to the infection for which you are taking antibiotics, Botox is not a medical emergency and you could wait until your medical condition has resolved before having the treatment.
Unless you have an infection in the skin in the area you are getting Botox there is no contraindication at all.
