How gastric bypass affects common medications
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial checks how common medications work after gastric bypass surgery. If you are taking certain blood pressure, cholesterol, or diabetes medicines and are scheduled for a Y-shaped bypass, this study may help your doctors better manage your future treatments.
