Hi, thank you for your question! Yes, you can get botox injected while taking Ozempic. There are no contraindications between the two drugs.

Sergio Guiteau, MD · Answer

Hello,
Thank you for your question. As of today, there are no explicitly known contraindications for using Semaglutide and Botulinum Toxin A (Botox) when they are both used as indicated by the FDA. However, it is always best to speak with your medical doctor/provider regarding the medications you are using before any cosmetic procedure.
I hope this was helpful :-)

Camille Cash, MD · Answer

It is always best to discuss all medications and supplements you take with your injector prior to treatment.  There should be no issue with your Botox treatment while taking ozempic.
