That's a question you'll have to ask your surgeon before you have the surgery. NSAIDs are not good to take after bariatric surgery because they can cause ulcers, but that is more important for gastric bypass patients than sleeve patients. Some doctors say it's ok for sleeve patients to take NSAIDs. Please ask your surgeon.

Definitely check with your surgeon.

My surgeon told me I could take over the counter nsaids for my odd headache but only because I took them so rarely & usually took only 1 or 2 once every month or two. But that was my situation. I think frequency of usage & the strength of your medication will influence your surgeon’s advice.
