Answer: Can I Take Ambien After Tummy Tuck & Lipo Surgery? At 9 days post tummy tuck and liposuction and off all pain medication, it would not be unusual for your body to be overstimulated at night. Since there is a rebound effect from being off surgical anesthesia and pain suppressants, taking Ambien for a few nights just to transition back into your normal lifestyle could possibly be a good idea depending on your plastic surgeon's protocol for post operative medication.At this point, I recommend you call your personal plastic surgeon and get his or her advice on the subject.
