A member asked:

Took 200mg ibuprofen sunday afternoon. is it still safe to get an endoscopy tomorrow (tuesday) morning at 9am?

2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Family practice : Your dr will tell you not to take any nsaid's for 3 days prior to the endoscopy unless it was an absolute emergency i would recommend waiting. At least tell your dr and let him decide.

Should be: Be sure to tell the GI doctor and the nurses at the endo center. I don't think it should be much of an issue.
