ASMBS and Bariatric Clinical Guidelines

• Gastric Bypass (RYGB/RNY), Sleeve Gastrectomy (VSG/SG), and Duodenal Switch (DS) patients are recommended to take a high potency multi-vitamin providing 200% daily value of 2/3 of key nutrients essential for bariatric surgery patients and which include vitamin B1 (thiamine), vitamin K, biotin, folic acid, selenium, iron, zinc, and copper
• Quality absorbable form of nutrients should be used after bariatric surgery due to the absorption challenges of bariatric patients
• Gastric Bypass (RYGB/RNY) and Sleeve Gastrectomy (VSG/SG) patients are recommended to take dietary supplements as chewable or liquid in the first 1-3 months after surgery.  Gastric Band (AGB) patients should always use chewable or liquid dietary supplements.
