Are we aloud to take advil?

It's my understanding that we should avoid Advil b/c it is an NSAID. I would double check with your surgeon.

Advil is a NSAID, NSAID's increase your risk for gastric ulcers. With your smaller stomach, the NSAID itself stays in the stomach longer and increases that risk. Most bariatric surgeons advise against use of NSAIDs in sleeved and bypass patients. But, every surgeon is different and has different post-operative advice. So, double-check with your surgeon.

Other NSAIDs: aspirin, naproxen (Aleve)

My surgeon told me only Tylenol.
