I am about 8 days away from surgery and have been told to not take specific medications whatsoever, including Progesterone, Anti-androgens, Aspirin, Ibuprofen, herbal supplements, blood thinners. I have a really big headache and the only thing the typically works for me is Excedrin which containst aspirin. Is anyone aware of a headache medicine that is OK to take pre-surgery?

I would be grateful!!

Thank you,
Hayley

Check with your doctor, is my best advice - (s)he will know your medical history and what is okay for you.

Tylenol is generally ok, but check it out with your doctor first.

Thanks for all the responses. I checked with the Doctors office and Tylenol is the only thing I am allowed to take for pain.
