Core Tip |
Amoxicillin is a standard regime for Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication in Japan. Esomeprazole is a second-generation PPI that became available in 2011 in Japan. Several studies have reported eradication data comparing esomeprazole to first-generation proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), but it is not known whether the H. pylori eradication rates of esomeprazole are equal to those of lansoprazole, a first-generation PPI, under circumstances of increased resistance to clarithromycin in Japan. |
