Introduction: the relationship between bariatric surgery and alcoholism is complex. After bariatric surgery, some people may be more susceptible to alcoholism due to metabolic and psychological changes. Objective: to identify the prevalence of alcohol use and risk factors in patients undergoing bariatric surgery using the AUDIT score. Methodology: cross-sectional, retrospective, survey study carried out between 2020-2021. The sample consisted of 5,160 patients undergoing bariatric surgery. Results: of the total sample, 3,354 responded to the AUDIT test, being divided into two groups according to the AUDIT score classification. 509 (15.18%) participants were classified as harmful use/probable dependence (zone III/IV) (Group A) and as low risk/risky use (zone I/II) 2,845 (84.82%) identified as Group B. In group A, the average age was 38.60 years, 460 (91.45%) were female, 284 (56.57%) came from the southeast, 309 (60.95%) identified themselves as white, 279 (54.92%) had completed higher education, 439 (86.93%) underwent gastric bypass, 229 (45.35%) were overweight according to the post-bariatric Body Mass Index. The use of alcohol only after bariatric surgery (13.41%) and the use before and after (86.19%) of the procedure was more prevalent in group A. Conclusion: risk factors such as sedentary lifestyle, smoking, illicit drugs, previous use of alcoholic beverages, post-bariatric overweight, longer time intervals after the surgical procedure and the gastric bypass surgical technique, may represent risk factors for harmful use or probable dependence on alcohol.
