Sulfamethoxazole Tmp Ds Tablet 800 160

Does this thin blood like aspirin, Ibuprofen? Is it safe to take this prior to surgery to knock a sinus infection?

Sulfamethoxazole Tmp Ds itself is not a blood thinner, although it does have a warning label stating it's interaction with other blood thinners.

As far as pre-operative doses go, this is probably something that should be discussed with the surgeon, since every surgeon has their own unique pre and post operative instructions. Odds are it is probably fine, as it is an antibiotic and doesn't thin blood; but just to be sure I would double check with his personal instructions.
