SaraLaughs 23 Posted January 1, 2013 I'm day 5 and sick of the narcotics, but not quite good enough to take nothing for pain. Can I take a regular (liquid) Tylenol? I'm going to call my doc in a bit, but I hate bugging them on a vacation day... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The.new.g 48 Posted January 1, 2013 My doc ok's liquid Tylenol. You should be fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RickM 1,752 Posted January 1, 2013 Tylenol is fine, as are most of the other OTC pain meds for occasional use - aspirin, ibuprofin, naproxen (Aleve) and the like - though some docs are still stuck in the bypass world that limits one to Tylenol only, but the rationale for that doesn't apply to the sleeved stomach.

suzthebrit 146 Posted January 2, 2013 You can take anything but if you choose ibuprofen just be sure to take it with food.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GeauxForIt 659 Posted January 2, 2013 Surgeon says no aspirin, ibuprofen or naproxen for me. Only Tylenol. The others are rough on a new tummy apparently. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
