30 Y/O Female, obese, otherwise healthy, on Sibutramine (Meridia) for 12 months, coming for Rhinoplasty under GA, any concerns?
Another question to ask yourself is, " Is there any risk if they stop the medication?"

If you look at the effects it is similar to Wellbutrin + Lexapro (NRSI, SSRI, and Dopamine). This is a fairly common combination. I guess the other way to look at it would be would you cancel on those two drugs.Another question to ask yourself is, " Is there any risk if they stop the medication?"

I see this case as comparable to a chronic Cocaine user, and I wouldn't cancel such a case but there is no evidence either way and there are people who would wait 2 weeks.
He ultimately decided to wait 2 weeks.
