Abstract
Introduction. Obesity is classified as a long-term condition with various causes and manifestations and represents a disproportionate accumulation of fat deposits in a human body. It is shown that overweight reduces the life expectancy and increases the likelihood of multiple diseases, even in young people. It is especially important to pay attention to people suffering from extreme obesity. This term refers to a condition in which the body mass index exceeds 40 kg/m2. One of the methods to combat this condition may be a bariatric intervention. Procedures for adjusting drug therapy in patients after bariatric surgery are common and have already proven their effectiveness. Medication management techniques help improve patient care throughout the entire treatment process, from the preparatory phase to the time the patient is ready to leave the hospital. The aim of our study was to systematize approaches to adjusting the drug therapy in patients who have undergone bariatric surgery. Materials and Methods. The object of the study is patients after bariatric surgery. Methodology is based on scientific and medical publications in the field of drug therapy for patients who have undergone bariatric surgery and statistical studies. 50 publications from scientific electronic libraries were studied and analyzed, such as eLibrary, Pubmed, Cyberlenika, and Google Scholar in 2010 and from 2020 to the present. Results and Discussion. In patients who had taken vitamins and minerals on a long-term basis, there was an improvement in the quality of life, an integrated approach to the obesity treatment was developed, and a reduction was found in concomitant risks. Conclusions. This paper describes scientific and practical approaches to the characteristics of drug therapy for patients who have undergone bariatric surgery, which makes it possible to more clearly determine the strategy for their rehabilitation and the characteristics of their future lifestyle.
