Is an eyebrow wax safe when taking this for acne?

I know on some it’s not safe.

Never been told not to and I take doxy a lot

I’ve never been told anything about waxing. The main issues with doxy are sun related issues (you need to stay completely out of the sun as you can get terrible sun induced rashes) and you need to stay upright for 30 mins after taking it as otherwise you can get terrible acid burn / acid indigestion.

Thanks. Went on copilot and it said not recommended, but got to the beauticians and she said better not to.
