Answer: How long to wait for diet pills... Generally you should stop taking any non prescription medication or supplements two weeks before surgery and resume two weeks after surgery. However you should consult with your surgeon on this because other factors need to be taken into consideration like how you are healing.

Answer: Taking diet pills after tummy tuck Your question raises the issue of whether you should have a tummy tuck before you have reached and maintained a stable weight. Post op use of medications which might contain amphetamines should be discussed with your surgeon, particularly if you are still on narcotic pain medications.
