Are Panadol And Nurofen Advisable For Pain Post Hernia Repair Surgery?
Hi my husband has had a hernia repair yesterday hospital were giving him regular panadol and nurofen for pain. He is also on blood pressure meds. Natrilix (Indapamide), Felodur Er (Felodipine) and Micardis (Telmisartan). I had thought that there was a problem with Nurofen (anti inflamm.) and his blood pressure drugs is this correct.

Hello
i appreciate your concern
To help you better in would like to know his age and complete medical history including his last recorded Blood Pressure
as far as anti inflammatory drugs are concerned for post op hernia repair pain is OK
If he was on the same medicines even before the surgery then his anti hypertensive drugs are correct keep on track of his BP
sometimes it may alter after surgery
Hope this answers your question
Best wishes
