I am scheduled for surgery on March 18th and have been taking the recommended folic acid, iron, vitamin c and b complex pills for over a month now and today my VitaMedica recovery pills came in the mail and the instructions say NOT to take any additional vitamin, mineral or herbal supplements while taking VitaMedica... is this accurate? should i only be taking vitamedica two weeks prior to surgery?
