Rhinoplasty and quetiapine medication - should I stop taking it before surgery? Does it affect recovery?

Before undergoing rhinoplasty, it's essential to inform your surgeon about all medications you're taking, including quetiapine. While quetiapine itself isn't known to directly affect wound healing, your surgeon needs to consider any potential interactions with anesthesia and other medications used during and after surgery. Abruptly stopping psychiatric medications can have adverse effects, so any changes to your medication regimen should be carefully managed in consultation with your prescribing physician and your surgeon.
