Psyllium husk, safe before surgery?

Psyllium prior to surgery should be fine. The narcotics that are given during and after surgery can cause constipation. Regular bowel movements are desirable so more aggressive suppositories and laxatives are not necessary. Discuss this with your specific surgeon. Most surgeons have a list of medications that they would like you to stop prior to the procedure. Best wishes to you!

Thank you for sharing your question and best wishes on your upcoming surgery.  Medications that improve your bowel movement regularity are recommended with a tummy tuck in order to avoid any unnecessary straining during recovery.  Though safe to have prior to surgery, always best to address any medication use with your surgeon.  

if you were my patient I would switch you to colace. I know what's in that and it doesn't contain any blood thinners. Over the counter homeopathic meds (psyllium husk) may or may not contain thinning agents. There is no regulation on how the homeopathic meds are manufactured. Best
