With my BA the doctor wanted me to take Celebrex during my recovery. Will it also be safe after a tummy tuck?
Answer: Is Celebrex alright to take up to and after a tummy tuck surgery? It is always best to run these types of questions by your plastic surgeon. Each plastic surgeon may have a different view regarding this question of timing to start anti-inflammatories (most feel that it is safe to do three weeks postoperatively assuming complication free post operative course). Some patients should not use anti-inflammatories based on their past medical/surgical history and/or allergy history. Best wishes for an outcome that you will be very pleased with.

Answer: NSAIDs after Tummy Tucks While most PSs do not want you taking NSAIDs before surgery due to bleeding and oozing issues( especially TTs) .In the post operative phase ,starting 3-4 days after , I have found them to be most helpful and they can reduce the need for stronger narcotics

Answer: Celebrex Should Be Safe With Surgery Celebrex is in a class of drugs known as "Cox 2 Inhibitors" and they have a different mechanism of action than most anti inflammatory drugs. In theory, this is a safe medicine to take before, during, and after surgery…BUT I would certainly check with your surgeon before doing so!Good Luck!
