A member asked:
Do we need to take any meds after endoscopy and colonoscopy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Usual medications: Nothing special needs to be taken after these procedures unless directed by your doctor. You can resume your usual medication unless you are taking aspirin and had a polyp removed or biopsy performed. If so you should wait a week after the procedure before resuming the aspirin.
