Dear Physicians, do antibiotics reduce the effectiveness of Kybella? What about Augmentin?

June 26, 2017
Asked By:Templar1978 in Houston, TX

Would taking a ten day prescription of Augmentin, beginning on day 7 after a first Kybella treatment, reduce the effectiveness of Kybella? If it would, is there an alternative antibiotic that would not interfere with Kybella's efficacy? Thanks again.
