A member asked:
I used to weigh 164 now weigh 216 because of seroquel (quetiapine). what type of weightloss surgery is there that can reduce amount of food i take in losing weight?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Diet and exercise: Diet and exercise come first, and second and third. Don't blame the medications. Surgery types that can be done include lap band surgery, gastric bypass, and gastric sleeve. They should be the last resort, when everything else fails.
