I have read some researchs about ssri group antidepressants would inhibit osteoblasts and therefore have negative impact on general bone healing process , making healed bone even weaker. s it safe to use them during rhinoplasty healing process? How does it take to heal bones in rhinoplasty?
How long should I be off my medications before rhinoplasty? How long should I wait after rhinoplasty to continue my meds? Also, is there something I can do for my oily skin before rhinoplasty? I read that oily skin hides the fine work of the Rhinoplasty surgeon. Thanks a lot.
I am currently on Wellbutrin and Buspar. My question is, will I be asked to taper off of these medications for a rhinoplasty surgery, and if so, how long will most doctors ask that I be off them (before and after surgery)? I've seen some concerning research on SSRI's and surgery but not so much on NDRI's. What can I expect my doctor will recommend?
Hi, I'm scheduled to have a rhinoplasty and septoplasty this summer and after reading over my surgeon's medication informational forms, I found out that I'm supposed to stop taking my antidepressant (I take Paxil 20 mg once a day.) two weeks prior to surgery and two weeks after surgery, and this concerns me greatly. Is it always necessary to stop taking an antidepressant prior to nasal surgery and are there any exceptions to this rule? Thank you.
