Depends: Where would you have surgery? I would recommend having your procedure done at the hospital, or a surgical center with anesthesiology available. They can review your medications and make sure there are no concerns in terms of interactions. The other option is to have the procedure under local anesthesia if you don't mind being AWAKE the whole time.
