Postop Cold Remedies, ,Vitamins, Etc.

I thought I posted this yesterday but I haven't seen it show up so I'll post again: Preop I always took Vicam, loads of Vitamin C, Echincea and Zinc at the first sign of a cold. This seemed to be a magic formula and I was able to ward off more colds this way (including the week before surgery). I have a cold coming on and am wondering if it okay (safe) to take these things postop and if so, do I need to increase the dosage due to malabsorption concerns? Thanks.
