I take glucosamine and chondroitin supplements to relieve my joint pain. Can I continue to take these before surgery?
A. No, definitely not. Chondroitin has the potential to interfere with normal blood clotting. Therefore people may suffer bleeding complications from chondroitin especially when it is used in combination with other blood-thinning medications. Glucosamine can actually mimic human insulin, thus artificially causing low blood sugar. Glucosamine and chondroitin should be discontinued 2 to 3 weeks prior to surgery. We advise our patients to discontinue all herbal medications 2 to 3 weeks prior to surgery.
