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

Taking antibiotics should not reduce the effectiveness of a Kybella treatment.  The antibiotics would not interfere with the method of fat destruction that Kybella produces.  

Antibiotics will not affect your Kybella in any way.  Kybella is a bile acid which dissolves fat in a natural way.  

No, this shouldn't negatively impact your results. Keep in mind, Kybella is good for dissolving fat under the chin, but a combination approach is needed to get the most improvement with non-invasive options. I recommend a combination approach with thermage, ultherapy, exilis. VASER liposuction in combination with ThermiRF is the best alternative for contouring the chin. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer

I don't think oral antibiotics will have any significant direct effect on Kybella effectiveness.  All antibiotics have some anti-inflammatory property and how this affects would be unknown.  Certainly, I would recommend that you take antibiotics if it is prescribed for a medical condition. 

No. Taking antibiotics will not affect the results of your Kybella treatment. Don't worry. However, it will take some time for your final Kybella results so be patient. 

Antibiotic treatment will have no impact on your Kybella treatment or your results. you should not have any concerns regrading this.

There should be no interaction whatsoever between Kybella and your antibiotics. No cause for concern. I hope you feel better and enjoy the wonderful results that Kybella delivers!

Taking antibiotics should not interfere with Kybella's effectiveness. Kybella has an immediate effect of lysing the fat cells. The rest of the process is your body's response in clearing the fat released. Taking antibiotics should not affect  this process.
