Can I use my inhaler to help me breathe after a breast augmentation?

Thank you for your question. Yes, it is OK to use your inhaler before and after surgery. I hope this helps!

Hi & thank you for your question! You can absolutely use your inhaler as needed post surgery. Talk with your surgeon with any concerns. Best Wishes!  

Thanks for your inquiry, you definitely can and should use your inhaler as advised by your doctors and best of luck with your surgery.

Inhalers are commonly used. Best to coordinate its use with your surgeon and primary care doctor.Dr. Ted Eisenberg, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and AuthorRealSelf Distinguished Hall of Fame Inductee

Yes, you can safely use your inhaler. Also, use enough pain medication, Tylenol, or whatever your surgeon prescribed to allow you to take fairly full breaths. 

Hello and thank you for your question. You can use your inhaler pre and post op. You should address your specific questions regarding management of your current medications with your surgical team. Best,Pejman Aflaki, M.D.

Dear  blinskidoll0120,
If you are considering a surgery, I would suggest you to discuss this with your plastic surgeon and anesthesiologist. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

You want to inform you anesthesiologist and PS that you use an inhaler and ask if you should bring it with you the day you have surgery.  They may want to administer a dose prior to and after surgery.

 Yes, generally speaking, patients who benefit from the use of inhalers are able to use them before and after surgery. Address specific instructions with your plastic surgeon. Best wishes for an outcome that you will be very pleased with.
