I'm not familiar with acetaminophen but before you go into any type of surgery i suggest you ask a doctor before taking any type of drug or medicene. It could react with something during your surgery and can make it have a bad result. so bottom line, ask ur doctor first

How long do you have to quite taking advil before surgery?

2 weeks prior to surgery, a week is ok but stop as soon as possible, I found out I was having surgery in a week and I obviously wasnt informed about not taking any advil and such a week before so its ok. Absolutely NO meds in you within 24 hours of surgery, unless the drug is approved by your doctor.

Can you take Tylenol after you take apple cider vinegar tonic?

Funny, I just taked with my doctor about this. I'm going in for surgery, and she said that detoxing the liver is OK when you're taking tylenol. She mentioned that the only risks with Tylenol (acetaminophen, to be exact) is liver DAMAGE. Apple cider vinegar help the liver, so it more or less balances it out. Hope that helps!
