@pudzzy,

If you're truly concerned about taking this medication during a surgery, I would highly recommend discussing this with your surgeon prior to the operation.

Reason being is that different surgeons have different pre and post operative instructions, where as some don't even allow you to take a multivitamin supplement, let alone a prescription medication. They each have their safety reasons I'm sure, but it's probably wise to make others aware of the medications you're taking, especially when it's going to be before a major operation.
