The effect of a gastric bypass surgery on the absorption of acetylsalicylic acid and omeprazole after ingestion.

Conditions
Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery is a successful treatment for morbid obesity. In this procedure, a small gastric pouch is created. The duodenum is bypassed by connecting the jejunum to this stomach pouch. The duodenum is then connected to a lower part of the jejunum to ensure passage of bile salts and pancreatic enzymes.
