Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Set the pattern of vitamin D supplementation in obese patients undergoing bariatric surgery in deficit of vitamin D.

Patients receive a single oral dose of vitamin D, during the 28 days will be done a kinetic curve. Then and over the next 3 months, levels are normalized. Once normalized, will be administered another single oral dose to a second pharmacokinetic evaluation.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The study is conducted in obese patients undergoing bariatric surgery (for bypass or sleeve gastrectomy) in deficit of vitamin D.

Will include a total of 44 patients, 22 from each type of surgery. Patients receive a single oral dose of vitamin D of 50,000 IU. During the 28 days after administration of vitamin D will be done a kinetic curve determining plasma levels of vitamin D on 15 occasions. Then and over the next 3 months, levels are normalized by providing a daily oral dose for each patient. Once levels are normalized, will be administered another single oral dose of 50,000 IU vitamin D and proceed to a second pharmacokinetic evaluation determining plasma levels 15 times.

Patient follow up is approximately 36 weeks. Patients go to the screening visit, baseline visit and visits on days 1, 2, 3, 14 and 28 days after each pharmacokinetic evaluation.

Cholecalciferol

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Cholecalciferol

Intervention Type DRUG

One baseline oral dose of 50.000 UI to determine pharmacokinetics. After 28 days, patients take a period of 90 days of standardization of cholecalciferol based on baseline levels. After this period, patients receive a second oral dose of 50.000 UI to determine a second pharmacokinetics.
