Allergies can occur in response to any medicine. However, the anesthetist will monitor you throughout your surgery and as long as you're under the influence of drugs. Discuss all your allergies and sensitivities with your doctor and anesthetist when preparing for a surgical procedure. A few individuals may have a genetic predisposition to anesthetic drug allergies. Talk to your intimate family members about any drug allergies that could help the medical team make appropriate choices for your particular needs.
