What do I do if I accidentally took Naproxen 36 hours prior to surgery?

I was having horrible back spasms last night and there was no Tylenol in the house. I found some Naproxen that was prescribed a while back and took it. I was looking over my pre-surgery paperwork this morning and realized that Naproxen is on the no list for 48 hours prior. Am I still safe for surgery tomorrow afternoon?

You need to contact the hospital and tell them. They are the only ones who can make a decision about this.

Explain what happened and they can make a decision.
