摘要

Obesity is a global health concern, with weight regain (WR) common after bariatric surgery. Clear guidelines on post-surgical medication use are essential. This expert consensus evaluates the role of obesity management medications (OMMs) in optimizing weight loss (WL) and preventing WR in individuals undergoing metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS). Using a modified Delphi approach, a panel of 12 experts reviewed evidence and formulated consensus recommendations. Two voting rounds led to consensus on 11 of 15 statements, covering preoperative WL strategies and postoperative weight management. The recommendations guide OMM selection, timing, and effectiveness in enhancing WL outcomes. Integrating OMMs into bariatric care protocols can help clinicians improve long-term success rates in obesity management.
