It depends what country you're in - the rules vary from country to country. In the UK, it's at least six months, andyou must be taking no medication. Contact the blood donor organisation in your country for an accurate answer.

Is it bad donating blood a day before surgery please help what can happen if i do?
It is not bad to donate blood before surgery. But it is generelly unacceptable. Thats because when you donate blood,the volume of blood decreases in your body and after surgery it will take a long time for your body to recover than if you had not donated blood. Weakness and slow recovery after surgery are the most common side effects if blood has been done before surgery and is not advisable
