Hi,
Oregano is a plant extract and you can safely take it while planning for a hip replacement surgery. No need to stop it prior to the procedure. It won’t interact with your anesthetic drugs and doesn’t affect the surgery either. Wishing you good health.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain
