Bromelain Before Tummy Tuck - Is It a Blood Thinner?

February 8, 2011
Asked By:beachgal

I am curious if it is safe to take Bromelain (500mg) a few days before abdominoplasty and then after. Some people have posted it is a blood thinner and some say it isn't. Obviously, I don't want to cause trouble during surgery on Friday. Thank you in advance for your advice!
