Deanol and Prabotulinumtoxina-Xvfs

Here is the interaction we found between these two, with the evidence behind it.

Minor

ANTICHOLINERGIC DRUGS

Why this applies to Prabotulinumtoxina-Xvfs

Theoretically, deanol might decrease the effectiveness of anticholinergic drugs.
Deanol is thought to increase acetylcholine levels.
Severity Minor Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D

Interaction has been demonstrated in animal or in lab research but has been shown not to occur in humans..

Dr. Brian Staiger, PharmD, BCPS
Dr. Brian Staiger explains PharmD, Clinical Pharmacist

Here's the thinking behind this one. Jeuveau (prabotulinumtoxinA) works by quieting the nerve signals that tell certain facial muscles to contract, which is how it smooths those frown lines between your brows. Since deanol is believed to nudge acetylcholine (a nerve-signaling chemical) up, the theory is that it could work against Jeuveau and make your results fade or look less complete.

I want to be honest, though: this is purely theoretical, based on how the two might behave on paper, not on real cases. It's rated minor and unlikely. Botulinum toxin is injected locally into muscle, so an oral supplement probably has little reach there. Still, it's worth a quick mention to your injector or pharmacist before your treatment.
