HOW LONG AFTER SURGERY GASTRIC SLEEVE SURGERY CAN YOU START BACK CAPSULE, Release OR

Capsule, Delayed Release

This is a good question to ask your surgeon and Doctor who prescribed your meds. I took all of my meds starting the day after surgery without a problem.

I agree with inner surfer girl. I had to crush mine for a couple of weeks.

I was allowed any medication smaller than an M&M right after surgery, but I know others who had to crush theirs or open the capsules.

Every surgeon has their own guidelines. I was allowed tiny pills (like my birth control pill and the anti-nausea medication they had me on) immediately post op. I was allowed my larger pills, like my multivitamin, calcium, etc. at 7 days post-op. I was told to try to avoid time release medications forever.

THANKS, I CALL DOCTOR OFFICE.

I've been taking my tiny pills. But I'm now off of everything but depression meds and Vitamins as per doc orders.
