How soon can I eat after an epidural

Current epidurals usually wear off within 2 to 3 hours, but usually the patient eats for 6 hours. If the patient is not undergoing laparotomy or gastrointestinal surgery, the eating time can be 6 hours, the patient's gastrointestinal function and body have recovered, and after drug metabolism, the patient's swallowing function and gastrointestinal tract function have recovered. to be comfortable.
