Study Summary

Adult patients with morbid obesity who have had Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) or laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) surgery have impaired drug metabolism. There is a paucity of information available on how these patients metabolize acetaminophen post operatively and if drug preparation has any effect on achieving adequate pain control. The surgery may alter the stomach pH, reduce surface area of the stomach, affect transit time, and alter anatomic and physiologic standard absorption of medications. Due to these anatomic and physiologic changes, we seek to understand the potential effects of liquid versus pill formulations of acetaminophen on pain control in this patient population. The purpose of this study is to assess for subjective and objective measures of optimized pain control between formulations of acetaminophen including oral pills and oral liquid.
