Can a Take a Sleeping Pill the Night Before my Tummy Tuck?

As long as your surgeon and  your anesthesiologist do not have a problem with it, taking a sleeping pill the night before surgery should not be a problem. It is a good idea to get a good nights sleep before surgery. However, I wouldn't take something you have never tried before the night before surgery and you should take it early enough in the evening that you will be awake and alert when you talk with your surgeon before you go in to surgery.

A good night's rest is important before surgery.  A sleeping pill is generally fine, but I don't recommend trying a new medication.

Make sure your surgeon is aware of your plan, but there should not be a problem. Many patients will use a sleeping tablet or a valium the night before surgery.

Best wishes, and thanks for the question.
