Not sure about that particular drug but I have to take two meds everyday and continue to do so right thru surgery, both pills are small. If they are big you may have to crush them but you should check with your Dr. before doing this and just check with him about any meds you need to take and how to take them. I am allowed to take Tylenol and swallow them at 3 weeks out. I usually cut it in half to make it easier to swallow. I've read where lap banders should avoid NSAIDS but my Dr. says it's ok, still bothers me tho so I try to get by without it.

Yep small tablets, my doctor just said think they are okay.

I have been on Zoloft for 2 years now. I was banded in December. I never had a problem taking the pills and I take 2 at a time.

I've only been banded since March 19 and I take Zoloft and my doc said it was ok. No problems getting it down right now, but I haven't had a fill yet.

I should also tell you that I have great restriction right now, 8ccs in my 10cc band!

Thanx your the second person on zoloft that has replied makes me feel more at ease now, thanx. By the way how are you going with the banding so far, you are going through the toughest stage.
