I don't think there is any evidence that NSAIDs are likely to produce problems with post op bleeding. In my experience we tend to withold NSAIDs in severe pre-eclampsia case or wherer there are other renal or clotting problems, but I'm unconvinced that even then there is a real danger. >

By "it" do you mean "analgesia" or "Voltarol". If the latter why is Im safer regarding bleeding? Malcolm Griffiths MD,MRCOG,MFFP,Cert.Mgmnt Obstetrician & Gynaecologist Luton & Dunstable Hosp.,UK.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
