Post Surgery Medications
Jun 12, 2011
I figured I should post about the medications that I am on post surgery.- Hyoscyamine Sublingual (LEVSIN SL) - 1 tab every 4 hours for fullness or nausea
- Lansoprazole (PREVACID SOLUTAB) - 1 tab twice daily before meals.
- Onadansetron (ZOFRAN ODT) - 1 tab every 8 hours for Nausea/Vomiting.
- Oxycodone-acetaminophen (ROXICET) - 10ML every 4 hours for pain. I am still have considerable pain/discomfort but I am going to try to slowly wein myself off and switch over to Liquid Childrens Tylenol.
I was able to discontinue my Metformin as my diabetes disappeared and was cured from the surgery! Yay!!
Medications that I am continuing are:
- Advair Diskus for Asthma
- Albuterol inhaler for Asthma
- Clairitin for allergies (I can swallow this pill with no issues)
- Flonase for allergies as needed.
- Metroprolol for my high BP 25mg tab (I have to cut in half and take with 1/2 oz of fluid one half at a time 15 min apart.)
- Sertaline for anxiety (cut in half take half tab with 1/2 oz of water and other half 15 min later with 1/2 oz water.)
I was told to stop taking:
Vitamin D
Ferrous Sulfate (Iron Pill)
Metformin (Glucophage) - Diabetes is resolved
Prilosec OTC switched to sublingual (dissolve on tongue) tab
Prenatal Vitamin
Vitamin B Complex
The Dr will instruct me when to restart vitamin and mineral supplements.
