Should I take my usual daily medication?

We generally request that you take your medication before leaving home. Diabetic medications will be individualized. We will usually hold diabetic medicines and manage your sugar at the Upper Peninsula Surgery Center. You should be contacted before your surgery leaving no doubts in your mind as to which medications you should take.

Please bring all your medications with you.

People using inhalers must bring them to the Upper Peninsula Surgery Center on the day of surgery.

Some medications will be stopped for the surgery, particularly diabetes medication and blood thinners. You should bring these medications with you the day of surgery. Please call us with any questions you may have. The Upper Peninsula Surgery phone number is (906) 273-2223.
