Is It Okay To Have Consumed Vitamins And Excedrin Before Having Gallbladder Removed Laparoscopically?

I m having my gallbladder removed laparoscopically tomorrow. No one told me I needed to stop taking vitamins and Excedrin. I have been taking 1-2 Excedrins daily for years for headaches. I haven t taken any Excedrin since Monday and I have continued taking vitamins - Multi, B-Complex, Magnesium Malate, Biotin, Zinc, D3. Will I be ok during surgery? I did tell the hospital this today and they didn t seem too concerned.

Hi and welcome to HCM.
There wont be any consequances if you used this and this wont interfere with surgery or anasthesia so you dont have to be concerned at all. Just dont take any drugs during posoperative period which wasnt prescribed by yor doctor.
Thanks for the query. Wish you good health. Regards
