Hello, Kenneth! How are you?

No, none of these are blood thinners, but you may still need to stop one, or more of them, before surgery, so it is always best to double check with your surgeon to be sure.

The Prednisone can sometimes interact with some medications that are used during surgery, according to the NIH.

Is there anything else I can help with?
