Can I Take A Lunesta If I Dissolve It-I'm Only 8 Days Post Op?

[lighteningbug 12]

I think they said I could when they gave me my discharge papers but really not totally sure. They crossed through my anti-inflammatory medication and told me not to take that but didn't say anything about my Lunesta. Need a good night's sleep but not sure if it will affect me different on my new stomach??? :wub: Thank you!!!

I crushed and drank an Ambien 3 days out of surgery and had no problems, just a great night sleep

I bet if you call the hospital and talk to the nursing staff they can tell you. Not sure if you are suppose to take that with the pain meds.

You should really check with your doctor.

I am off pain meds and just called discharge nurse who confirmed I could! I think I'll just try half...

Lunesta is a tiny winy pill ... you should have no problem ... I take ambien and took it right after surgery .. I am a chronic insomniac so I have to take it every night ... I really don't think you will have any problems taking the lunesta ... try having a hot cup of tea when you take it so that it goes down nice & easy (& probably will melt right away in your insides as you drink something warm like tea or even some chicken broth or some hot cocoa (sugar free) ) .... happy dreams!

My acid inhibitor pills were normal capsule size and I took them right after surgery. Some pills are time release and shouldn't be crushed.
