How are vitamins handled while in the hospital?
I think they usually say to just start them when you go home. You'll only be in the hospital a day or two.
They will have any prescription meds you need, though, related to surgery or not. Like, they gave me my antidepressants while I was in the hospital along with pain meds.
If you're worried about it, ask your doc if they will give you your vitamins and if not, if it's OK if you bring your own. Same with protein drinks.

They asked us to bring them all, but that was to just verify what we were taking. While in the hospital they banana bag me (vitamin bag for those that don't know the term) and they gave me in my IV anything else I was needing.
