What type of pain medication commonly given after tummy tuck?
Francinepaffie
It would depend on the surgeon and the patient. This would be something that you would probably want to ask the surgeon. I would guess that they would prescribe a muscle relaxer and maybe something like Hydrocodone (generic for Vicodin and/or Lortab). I didn't have a tummy tuck but did have my stomach cut open from my breasts to my belly button and was hospitalized a total of 12 days. Due to my very high tolerance to pain medicines, I was given a much stronger narcotic with a muscle relaxer as well. I would think that this is something that the surgeon would be more likely to answer. I don't believe there is a "standard" type of medicine, as we are all made differently and have very different levels to tolerate pain. Hope this helps!
