CO2 Laser & UTI Medicine?

mathieblFeb 18, 2022
I have an appointment Monday for CO2 laser for my face to help with scarring. I have already driven a long way for this appointment. I just started having really bad UTI symptoms a few hours ago and I am not sure if it is okay to take antibiotics before the procedure. I ran to the store to grab some analgesic which I just took and also grabbed an antibacterial (methenamine). Am I able to take antiobiotics or at least the antibacterial?

Hello, dermal filler may be much better for you than laser. It would be more correct to ask this subject to plastic surgeons or dermatologists. I am a gynecologist. I have no experience with these regions.
