Sometimes after having bariatric surgery your body can no longer absorb essential nutrients and your body may need a vitamin infusion to replenish vitamins.
Oral supplements are sometimes not absorbed after bariatric surgery. With IV therapy, the gut is bypassed, and the IV infusion goes straight to the bloodstream. Dehydration can also occur in bariatric surgery (weight loss surgery) patients. When the stomach is made smaller, you can feel full faster. This may cause you to drink less fluid.
Symptoms of dehydration include:
Lethargy
Decrease energy
Dizziness
High heart rate
Low blood pressure
Dark yellow urine
