Abstract
Before the operation 500 mg keflex is given and again immediately postoperatively. Patients from out of town are given 500 mg keflex twice daily for 3 days. Immediately after surgery, an antibiotic ointment (mupirocine 2%) is applied to the recipient site and donor staples. We also provide six Tylenol 3 and two sleeping pills for the patient to use as required.
