Elderberry syrup before surgery?

User Avatar

I am 8 days out from surgery and have ceased all medication and most supplements outside of vitamin c and zinc that I was told would be safe. My allergies have come on full swing this weekend and I'm trying to do everything possible to keep it at bay. Will elderberry syrup be safe to take? I can't seem to find any negative interactions it could cause. Also, will seasonal allergies prevent me from getting surgery?
