> > I will be having major surgery in a couple of weeks (nothing serious, purely elective). My intake of prescriptions and OTC drugs is being limited. My question is, do you know if the Lexapro would interfere with my ability to have surgery? I have to be off drugs such as aspirin and Alleve. I was just wondering, because my doctor isn't familiar with ADs, and though he will probably be doing the research himself, I thought I would ask here since you are knowledgeable about this drug in particular. Thanks!

> Good luck with your surgery:o)Thanks for the info -- I haven't had any surgery in about 15 years, so I am hoping that none of my medications get in the way. And thanks for the good wishes -- I am nervous about it, so I really hope it goes well.
