Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am currently on isoniazid( treatment for inactive tb) I wanted to do a touch-up on my existing tattoo. I also take lorazepam for panic attacks when the need arises.(not everyday) My question is:is it safe to have a tattoo at this time? And is it safe to take any anti-anxiety medication while im getting a tattoo?
Hello I dont think there is any problem in going for tattoo. Just take care of precautions with needles, hygiene etc. Also, it is safe to take antianxiety medications with tattoo. Thanks.
