Hi there, is it safe to have Botox whilst taking medication? I currently take 100mg once a day of amitriptyline and take 300 x 3 a day of gabapentin. I take these due to facial nerve pain, but hate the 11s on my forehead. If I can't use Botox whilst taking these meds is it ok to maybe have filler there instead? Thank you

Answer: Botox Thank you for your question.Botox works directly on the muscle it is injected in. You should be alright to proceed with injections. You can always call the doctor that prescribes the medication and see if they advise otherwise.

Answer: Is it safe to have Botox while taking medication? It is perfectly safe to get Botox treatment while on your medications. Botox lock the release of a chemical called acetylcholine, which triggers the muscle contractions that create wrinkles. Botox essentially paralyze the muscles and stops them from contracting. Results from these treatments are visible within 3-7 days with results that can last anywhere from 3-4 months. Hope this helps.
