What should I eat or drink before surgery?
- You should eat a well-balanced meal the evening prior to your surgery. A glass of
alcoholic beverage is allowable.
- After midnight prior to your surgery you should not consume any food or
beverage. It is ok to brush your teeth and rinse and to take your pre-approved
medicines with a sip of water.
- ANY other intake may cause your case to be delayed or cancelled.
