I'm two years post surgery. Is it ok to take a daily anti inflammatory? My allergist put me on singulair for allergies. I don't know if this can cause stomach bleeding...

Singulair is a leukotriene inhibitor, not an anti-inflammatory in the sense that non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are. I've been on Singulair for years and my Pharm. D didn't see any issues with it being continued after my surgery. Of course, you'll want to check with your bariatric office.

I have been on Singulair for years, and likewise, it's not been a problem. Even the NSAIDs aren't nearly as big a deal for us with the sleeve as it is for those with the bypass, for whom they are a big no-no.

Thank you both for your helpful input. It's a relief to know people with sleeves who have been on this medication. Very helpful
