Discuss with Doctors: You need to discuss need for your pain meds with the doctors as except for tylenolwhich is over the counter and you can take extra strength every 4 hours for pain.Other choice is tramadol with Acetaminophen which is pription and you may be able to tolerate, and you need a prescription for that.

Ultracet (tramdol and acetaminophen) or tramadol: An alternative would be tramadol, a quasi-narcotic, or ultracet (tramdol and acetaminophen) which is tramadol plus acetaminophen. I use these on older patients or those who struggle with narcotics. Another option is Acetaminophen with codeine, an alternate narcotic. Ask your surgeon. Good luck.
