Floradix vs iron supplements before surgery

Dear mblumcma,

every plastic surgeon has his own preoperative protocol which he recommends to his patients. I would suggest you to discuss this with your plastic surgeon.

Thank you for your query. Iron supplements are usually not required before BBL , if you have a normal hemoglobin. If, however you need to take them, you can choose the ones that agree with your stomach. Floradix has herbs and vitamin C and B complex, which may help lower the incidence of constipation and help absorb the iron. Please ask your surgeon his./her preference. All the best!
