NSAID and Hair Loss From Hair Transplant.

On the day of my surgery I took an lozenge for my sore throat. Later I realized in horror it contained a NSAID (Flurbiprofen 8.75mg).

There was no excessive bleeding during or after the surgery. However I’m afraid that the NSAID caused just enough bleeding to dislodge many grafts and they popped out without any signs during the first hair wash 18 hours after the procedure.

I do not understand the basis of your “horror”. Please follow up with your doctor.

In general many patients take pain medication on the day or even during surgery. This includes NSAIDS. In general NDAIDS have a slight bleeding risk.
