Article Synopsis
- Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) is a frequent issue for bariatric surgery patients, and this study evaluated the effectiveness of various antibiotic treatments following a glucose breath test (GBT).
- A total of 101 patients (mostly women and around 48 years old) from different surgical procedures were analyzed, with an 83% positive GBT rate influenced by factors like age, gender, and proton pump inhibitor (PPI) use.
- The results showed that both gentamicin/metronidazole and metronidazole treatments were equally effective in alleviating symptoms of SIBO, reinforcing the need for SIBO consideration in post-surgery abdominal symptoms.
