Which over the counter medicines can I take for allergies before breast augmentation?

I appreciate your question.I recommend that you discuss this question with your plastic surgeon.  Your surgeon is your best resource as he/she is most familiar with your medical history and how you will be healing following surgery.

The best way to assess and give true
advice would be an in-person exam.

Please see a board-certified plastic
surgeon that specializes in aesthetic and restorative breast surgery.Best of luck!

Hello,Many medications including allergy medications can have an effect on bleeding or clotting. Some Plastic Surgeons will recommend that you avoid an extensive list of medications and supplements, others only rule out Aspirin, Warfarin...I recommend that you ask your Plastic Surgeon to advise you about your specific plan.All the best

You should discuss this with your surgeon but generally any medications that don't contain aspirin or anti-inflammatories such as Motrin/Advil/Ibuprofen/Aleve/Naproxen would be fine. The medications I mentioned can increase the risk of bleeding or bruising. Tylenol (acetaminophen) is not a problem, nor are antihistamines or decongestants.
