NyQuil contains ingredients such as acetaminophen, dextromethorphan, and doxylamine, but it does not typically lead to high levels of Ethyl Glucuronide (EtG), a metabolite of ethanol, in any patients, including those who have had gastric bypass surgery. While gastric bypass can affect drug absorption and metabolism, the presence of EtG would primarily be associated with alcohol consumption. If a patient ingests alcohol while taking NyQuil, it could potentially elevate EtG levels, but this would be due to alcohol intake rather than the NyQuil itself. Always consult a healthcare provider for personalized advice.
