icequeen813 3 Posted January 12, 2011 Hi I was banded 8 days ago and am wondering two things-when can I swallow a pill and I always prefered Advil but heard its not the best thing to take for Lap surgery-what else is there?? liquid Tylenol. Also if you are on any prescribed meds,you are supposed to crush them. Stay away from aspirin & NSAIDS like Advil, these meds can contribute to band erosion.
