I Had to Reschedule my Tummy Tuck, Breast Reduction and Arm Lift Because I Take Adderall?

May 9, 2012

I was told I had to be off the adderall for at least two weeks prior to surgery because of new information that has come out about this. Can you tell me more? The nurse was not sure of all the details.
