  • How long does vomiting last after anesthesia?

    Nausea and vomiting after a General Anesthetic can last anywhere from immediately after surgery in the recovery room to 24 hrs out. If the patient requires a fair amount of narcotics after their surgery this can exasperate the symptoms and may extend those symptoms even beyond that window to 72 hrs or more. The incidence is typically higher in women more than men and in younger patients then the elderly. There are more advanced medications now used to help mitigate these symptoms which have improved and reduced the numbers of patients with post op nausea and vomiting but nothing can actually prevent it from happening altogether.
