Using marijuana before a breast reduction

It is very important to inform your surgeon that you smoke marijuana even if it is only occasionally. Although you will most likely be fine, your surgeon and the anesthesiologist need to know all substances that may be in your system for safety reasons when prescribing post operative and anesthetic medications.

Let your surgeon and anesthesia provider know. Try to cut back to avoid any healing problems from inhaling smoke. Smokeless options may be safer from a wound healing standpoint.

Marijuana should not affect your breast reduction surgery outcome. However, it may affect the anesthesia plan. Make sure to inform your anesthesiologist that you have been smoking weed prior to your surgery.

No, not necessarily but you should always be honest with your doctor as well as anesthesologist with what you are taking for it may interfere with your anesthesia adversely!
