Then if you must have general anesthesia for your upcoming surgery, make it clear to your anesthetist that you need an alternative, and perhaps dual or triple therapy before surgery. Consider a scopolamine patch administered before surgery, aggressive intravenous hydration if your surgery is later in the day, and opt for regional anesthesia if your surgery can be done with local anesthesia with sedation instead of general anesthesia alone.
