Direct answer: A useful gastric bypass list identifies the total daily target, what the multivitamin supplies, what remains separate, and which laboratory results can change the plan.
Checklist for a Roux-en-Y regimen
- Bariatric multivitamin with procedure-appropriate thiamine, folate, iron, zinc, copper, and fat-soluble vitamins.
- Vitamin B12 by the route and dose prescribed.
- Elemental calcium in divided doses, separated from iron.
- Vitamin D and any treatment doses adjusted to laboratory results.
What to do next
Reconcile the list at every visit because adding products without totaling them can create both gaps and excesses.
For procedure-specific supplement amounts, use the ASMBS guideline summary and compare the complete regimen with the plan from the bariatric surgeon or registered dietitian.
