INTRODUCTION. Type 2 Diabetes mellitus is characterized by insulin resistance in peripheral tissues. Weight loss after bariatric surgery decreases the resistance to it. OBJECTIVE. Evidence of the lower use of hypoglycemic drugs in the medium term in patients with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and obesity evidence of the lower use at Carlos Andrade Marín Specialty Hospital undergoing bariatric surgery. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Cross-sectional descriptive study, 250 Clinical Stories of Obese Patients Undergoing Bariatric Surgery were analyzed with a sample of 88, who were diabetic valued in the hospital between june 2016 and december 2017. Doses of metformin, insulin and the result of glycosylated hemoglobin before surgery were evaluated. They were compared at 6 and 12 months later.RESULTS.Preoperative metformin had an average daily dose of 1 641,76 grams with a decrease over 6 months after surgery of 261,65 grams (85%) and at 12 of 182,39 grams (89%) with a value of p<0,04 and p<0,05 respectively. For insulin there was a daily average of 12,41 IU preoperative, at 6 months post-surgical had a mean of 3,14 IU (75%) and at 12 from 1,64 IU (87%) with a significantly positive p-value of 0,53. The initial mean glycosylated hemoglobin was 7,39%, and at 6 post-surgical months 6,01% and at 12 months of 5,82% with a p=0,000. CONCLUSION. Patients with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and obesity, undergoing bariatric surgery, decreased the dose of hypoglycemic medication and maintained their tendency until the year of assessment, in relation to weight loss and body mass index.
