housecatgirl Posted April 21, 2006 Report Share Posted April 21, 2006 Is there anti-biotics and pain pills? Which ones? Should I bring any over the counter medicine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelley Posted April 25, 2006 Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 Dr. Ortiz will dispense a medication that is both a pain reliever and a anti-inflamatory. The medication may be taken every 12 hours and he gives you enough for 4 doses. You just slip the pill under your tongue and let it melt. Tylenol makes a liquid for adults that I've been using to help with minor pain at the port site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
