All these medication will not interact or interfere with Botox injection. Botox are safe in most setting. I would advise not getting Botox if you are taking muscle relaxants. Good luck Think beauty

Hello shazzascThanks for reaching out. Botox does not interfere with the medications you take above. I am assuming that you are a chronic pain patient given the type of Morphine you are on. I do think that signing consents with you on pain meds may be a bit of an issue of you are not on chronic med pain meds. I do not think that you will have a problem with Botox but I would inform your physician injector both on the intake forms as well as verbally to just to make sure that they are comfortable injecting you. If patients are on chronic pain meds, they are less susceptible to being affected in their ability to make decisions; however, if you are on pain meds because of recent surgery or for a short time, I would recommend that you finish the medications that were prescribed to you and then go and get the injectionsHope this helps!Best of Luck,Dr. Manios
Hello and thank you for your question. Those medications wouldn't affect your treatment,however, the treatment consents are signed with the knowledge that you are not medicated with a narcotic pain medication and are of sound mind. Discuss it with your injector at your consult.
Thank you for your question shazzasc. I understand your concern. Botox is a purified protein used to address wrinkles associated with facial expression. When injected into the skin Botox will relax the muscles and smoothen out the overlying wrinkles. The most common areas of treatment are in the upper face. These include the horizontal lines seen on the upper forehead when one raises the brows, the vertical lines seen between the brows when one frowns (frown lines), and the crow's feet seen around the eyes when one smiles.It is difficult to make an assessment without a formal exam where the entire medical history is reviewed. However, I hope the information provided here is useful.While Botox is one of the safest treatments offered, there are some situations where it is not appropriate. These include anyone who has an allergy to any of the inactive ingredients or who has had an allergic reaction to any botulinum product including Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, or Myobloc. Those who are taking an aminoglycoside antibiotic, an anesthetic, D-penicillamine, antimalarials, or immunosuppressants should not be treated, nor should those who have undergone chemotherapy within the previous six months. It is important to avoid blood thinners before and after a treatment. These include both prescription and non-prescription medications such as warfarin (coumadin), aspirin, ibuprofen, alcohol, fish oil, vitamin E, and ginko biloba. Those with conditions that affect muscles and nerves such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS or Lou Gehrig's disease), myasthenia gravis, or Lambert-Eaton syndrome should not undergo Botox treatments. The safety and efficacy of Botox has not been established in women who are pregnant, trying to become pregnant, or breast feeding. Therefore, women in these categories are advised to wait until breast feeding is completed prior to having a Botox treatment. Botox should not be placed in the skin on the site of an infection.The medication listed above are not known to have interactions with Botox treatments. If I had a patient on these medications I would say that Botox can be safely administered.With any injection, there are risks such as pain, bleeding, bruising, redness, swelling, tenderness, and infection. We take special precautions to minimize these risks such as using a painless technique. We also treat bruises with a laser as early as the next day. Bruises usually resolve within two weeks if untreated. After a laser treatment bruises usually resolve in 1-3 days, but may still take two weeks for full resolution. In addition to these risks, with Botox there is also a risk that the product spreads or diffuses to nearby structures. Spread to nearby muscles can lead to side effects such as the temporary appearance of droopy eyelids or a temporary asymmetric smile.After a Botox treatment, I recommend that my patients avoid heat exposure, alcohol consumption, and strenuous exercise for 24 hours and not lie down flat for four hours. This is because all of these activities may possibly lead to the movement of the product and consequent side effects such as droopy eyelids as described above. Although there have been no definitive studies shown that these actually occur and some physicians do not provide such aftercare instructions, in the absence of data I err on the side of caution and recommend that my patients avoid such activities.Please consult with a doctor for specific recommendations. Good luck!
Thank you for your question. There are no known interactions between oral medications and neuromodulators (Botox, Dysport, Xeomin) or dermal fillers. Some experts recommend avoiding any blood thinners or platelet inhibitors such as NSAIDs prior to cosmetic procedures to reduce bleeding risk and thus bruising but for non-invasive procedures such as injectables I do not routinely recommend this. Hope that helps!
Yes, would be able to receive Botox injections while taking these medications as none of these a contraindicative with the procedure. Best of luck with your treatment!
Unfortunately, the Botox probably diffused into an adjacent muscle which is a unfortunate complication of Botox into the chin. The chin and smile will improve over the next 4-6 weeks but will probably take 3-months to return to normal.
Thank you for your question. Yes, you can take antibiotics a week after Botox treatment as it will not interfere with your results. I recommend addressing any concerns you may have with your treating physician. Best of Luck!
Thank you for your question. No, this is not a sensitivity to Botox. Your result is due to either the Botox being placed too close to the eyebrows or too high of a dose. As Botox is temporary the effects will wear off in 3-4 months. I recommend following up with your injector for an evaluation....
