Will being on cedax (ceftibuten) interfere or mess with general anesthesia?

No: Cedax (ceftibuten) is a common and safe antibiotic that will not interfere with most anesthetics. However, you should always tell your physician or anesthesiologist what medications you are on before a procedure, especially if they will be administering your home medications while you are in the hospital.

No: Being on an anti-biotic will have no affect on general anesthesia. In fact for most surgeries we will give you more anti-biotic before the surgeon starts work.

Should not be.: Although there are some medications that are contraindicated with Cedax (ceftibuten) - there are no major /moderate interactions with majority of anesthesia type meds (from literature that I reviewed)..
