Smoking pot: Absolutely not. If anything you are at greater risk of having a complication. Smoking pot is not like having cookies and milk. Unfortunately society is trying to trivialize its use -wrongly i might add.

NO: You definitely do not want to smoke pot before getting wisdom teeth removed. The smoke actually irritates your lungs and airways (that's why you cough when smoking) and can make anesthesia more dangerous. In addition, it is a depressant, so it makes it hard to guess drug interactions. The only medicine used for anesthesia is what the doctor gives.

No : This drug will have no effect on your anesthetic. The chemicals inside the smoke will increase the reactivity of your airway and increase your coughing. I have to mention that this drug is not good for you, and unless there is a need for it it should be stopped.
