Pain relif, post band

[EZE]

hi Guys , just thought of another question what painkillers do u take once you have had ur band fitted, do u use soluble or have to consult gp 1st?

 

[j.u.s.t.l.i.z.]

i used normal tablet form after both bands they dissolve in the pouch any way ive had no problems with pills xx

I had liquid paracetemol after op and they worked fine. Now I take normal ones and just break them in halfx

you could always pound em to a powder if u feel they too difficult to swallow...........

I usually have aspro clear if I really HAVE to take something, it's gopping though, even in squash so I might chance a normal nurofen or something next time.

I use the Solpahdeine you can buy in Asda and Tesco, they're dissolvable.

After a while you can or should be able to take normal pills. I can swallow large capsules now with no worries...

Cool thanks, I will have a normal capsule next time then, trying to knock back disolvables makes me feel worse most of the time *wince*
