Hello, and thanks for your question.
Make sure your doctors and surgeons know that you are taking oxycodone. It can affect blood pressure and the respiratory rate and can interact with anesthetics, so it important they are aware of your use of oxycodone. As long as they know you are taking it, everything should be okay.
