Does Botox Decrease Wbc Count?
Hi, I have a low wbc and used botox. Loved the results. Felt fine. However I went to get a physical and my wbc lowered from 3.7 to 2.1. So I waited a few months when the botox was out of my system and noticed my wbc was back up to 3.7...Is it not safe to use botox? Could this decrease my wbc?

Hello,
I understand your concern.
I am Dr. Arun Tank, infectious diseases specialist, answering your query.
In my opinion you should not worry taking botox.
Botox has nothing to do with the WBC count.
It will be by chance error that had happened in WBC count in your case. You can confirm it by second time when you start botox again.
I will be happy to answer your further concern, you can ask me on bit.ly/DrArun.
Thank you.
