Core Tip	Atrophic gastritis (AG) may arise from long-standing Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection and is linked to increased gastric cancer risk. According to guidelines, Hp-positive AG patients should receive eradication treat­ment. The goals of treatment are as follows: (1) Cure of infection, (2) possible reversal of atrophic/metaplastic changes, and (3) prevention of gastric cancer. When involving the corporal mucosa, AG is linked to reduced acid secretion. At a non-acidic intra-gastric pH, the ef­ficacy of common treatment regimens may not be the same as those observed in an acid-producing stomach. There is a paucity of evidence of efficacy of eradication regimens in AG patients. Bismuth-based therapies may be promising.
