Do I need to stop my medications before cosmetic surgery?
Most prescribed medications should be taken before and after your surgery.
You must stop all salicylate containing compounds (i.e. aspirin), nonsteriodal anti-inflammatory medications (i.e. ibuprofen), extra vitamins except one multivitamin per day, and all natural, herbal, or homeopathic preparations two weeks before your surgery.
You wil be given a list of medications which you should not take at the time of your office visit.
