Can I donate if Im taking medication?
Most medications are acceptable, including all common blood pressure medications. Aspirin and ibuprofen are okay, as long as the donor is feeling fine during the time of their appointment. Birth control pills and cholesterol-regulating drugs are acceptable. Those taking allergy medications can donate as long as the donor is not experiencing symptoms at the time of donation. If donors have received antibiotics, they will be able to donate seven days after the last dose, if they have been symptom-free for 72 hours. For more information, visit this page.
