Yes: There should be no interaction between his current antibiotic and anesthesia or surgery, although be sure to tell your anesthesiologist and surgeon about all medications and supplements he is taking before hand. Best wishes!

Mgt: I agree, and they will review his vital signs, check for fever and any respiratory problems prior to surgery. If he has a history of any allergic reactions, please discuss this prior to his surgery.
