Summary

In 20 - 30% of the patients, the low responders, sufficient weight loss is not achieved after bariatric surgery. Secondary and/or tertiary bariatric procedures can lead to successful weight loss and resolution of comorbid conditions though, morbidity and mortality rates of these procedures are high. Therefore, additional pharmacotherapy has been suggested. Semaglutide is one of the medications that might improve outcome in the post-bariatric population. Semaglutide is a Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor analogue developed to treat type 2 diabetes. It causes glucose-dependent insulin secretion, promotes satiety and inhibits glucagon secretion. In obese (non-bariatric) patients, semaglutide has shown to improve glycemic control, decrease blood pressure, lower cardiovascular risk, and decrease body weight.
