☠carolinagirl☠ 18,721 Posted July 4, 2012 i asked my dr 2 weeks ago if i could take midol, he said no, just stick to liquid tylenol (but best to check with your dr) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mjp33 4 Posted July 4, 2012 You should really check with your doctor. I was on a whole slew of meds before my surgery and when I left, he gave me a detailed list of what to continue and what to stop. At my first post-op visit, we revisited the list and made adjustments as needed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sojourner 2,446 Posted July 4, 2012 Thanks. I can't get a hold of them today The medical practice should have 24/7 and holiday coverage for both emergencies and to address medical concerns. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NWgirl 574 Posted July 4, 2012 Most practices only recommend tylenol, either liquid or the ones that are smaller than your pinky nail. Other types of medicines have things in them that may contribute to erosion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
