Tricia1285 5 Posted April 20, 2013 Quick question, when you have the gastric sleeve does the same precautions arise when taking motrin and things of that nature. I have the lap band and I was told if I have to take motrin they prescribed me something to take with it so it doesn't affect the band, is this the same with the sleeve?

carstanger 346 Posted April 20, 2013 I had the sleeve and take omeoprozel every day before breakfast....Tylenol as needed. Had to stop Celebrex for at least 6 months..which is almost here, but I'm doing ok without it so probably won't start it again. I'm surprised. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
