It is best to contact your doctor for post operative care and medication questions.  In general it may be ok to take, but there may be missing medical information that only your doctor may be aware of to give you an informed answer.

David Deutsch, MD · Answer

You can take Viagra and your supplements at any time now.We generally instruct our patients to refrain from heavy exercise/activity for 1 week following the procedure but I would check your surgeon's specific instructions.

Sean Behnam, MD · Answer

There shouldn't be any problem with taking either of those, but check with your doctor just to be safe. They may have knowledge of your case that could change that deadline. Generally it is a 2 week wait before resuming strenuous exercise but every doctor has slightly different guidelines.

Karl Hekimian, MD · Answer

You should always check with your surgeon about things to avoid the first 1-2 weeks after surgery, but after that there should not be any issues with those medications.

After a hair transplant you can take Viagra and work out. Some of the shakes have steroids in them and if you find that the case, you can lose some of your native hair more so
