The role of the municipal manager is primordial in the planning, monitoring and evaluation of health actions in their municipality, among them the management of obesity, so this article aims to describe the perspective of primary care managers of the nine municipalities of the health regions of the state of Amazonas on the Obesity Care Line. This is a cross-sectional, census, descriptive and quali-quantitative study. The average age of the managers was 38 years, majority female (57.1%), and brown (71.4%). By the criteria used for the scoring of the analysis of obesity care by managers, the municipalities presented classification between "critical" and "incipient", that is, all presented absence of factors that influence obesity care. The themes mentioned by the managers reinforce the results, being them: Challenges in the Care Line Flow; Lack of Infrastructure of services and actions for the Management of Obesity and Work Process. It`s primordial to reassess the model of assistance practiced, emphasizing the care and autonomy of the subjects, the team role, the public management, the particularities of each location to understand the multicausalities of the data and assist in the development of specific actions aimed at tackling obesity.
