Ruthie 2 Posted December 19, 2005 This is my first cold since being banded and I can't find my approved meds list. Are we restricted on taking Cold medicine? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kimberly6671 0 Posted December 19, 2005 I would think anything liquid...I love Theraflu in warm Water. It's so soothing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BandsterHopeful 1 Posted December 19, 2005 You can safely take anything that does not contain ibuprophen, motrin, (NSAIDS) - those products containing tylenol (acetaminophen) are fine. Choose either a liquid or one that can be cut into small pieces, so it can get through the stoma. All meds should be this small. then, take a full glass of Fluid afterward to wash them completely through. hope you feel better! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
