The gastric band surgery does not interfere with your body’s ability to absorb nutrients from food, but this type of weight loss surgery is a restrictive procedure. Since the gastric band is restrictive, it leads to you eating less food and getting fewer vitamins and minerals from food. You may need vitamin supplements to supplement the vitamins and minerals you get from food and prevent deficiencies.

The gastric band can lead to a high chance of vitamin and mineral deficiencies if you are not careful. Nutrient deficiencies can make you tired and less energized. They can slow your metabolism and keep you from losing as much weight as you deserve. Being deficient in some nutrients can even have long-term effects such as nerve damage and weaker bones

Don’t risk getting vitamin and mineral deficiencies! If your doctor recommends supplements and you hate swallowing pills or chewing your supplements, try vitamin patches instead. Just put on a new vitamin patch each day for each of the patches in the Gastric Band Vitamin Patch Pack

The vitamin patches have the essential vitamins and minerals your body needs for good health, plus extra amounts of the specific vitamins and minerals that you need after Gastric Band surgery

The Gastric Band Patch Pack by PatchAid includes a 30-day supply of:

• Multivitamin Plus Patch

• B12 Energy Plus Vitamin Patch

• Vitamin D3/Calcium Patch

PatchAid Difference

At PatchAid, we support total health. We see the human body as the complex, interactive system that it is, with ever-changing components that affect each other. You can see this holistic philosophy reflected in our patches when you see that PatchAid patches contain more nutrients per patch than other brands.

Another PatchAid difference is the value we deliver to our customers. Our patches come with clear backing for a clear reason: it works. Other brands come with a white paper backing that can stick to the patch and damage the patch when you try to peel off the backing. Our patches come with a clear backing designed specifically to make sure every patch is usable, every time.

To Use:

1. Select an area of skin. The patch will stick better if you choose an area of skin without hair, lotion, or oil residue. Clean and dry the skin.
2. Remove the release liner from the patch.
3. Adhere the patch to your skin, pressing firmly.
4. Wear the patch for as long as you would like, preferably at least 8 hours.
5. When finished, remove the patch, fold in half, and discard.
6. Repeat with a new patch the next day.

It is ok to wear multiple PatchAid patches at a time.
