Core Tip |
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a prevalent, worldwide, chronic infection. The ideal therapy regimen for H. pylori infection should achieve an eradication rate ≥ 80%. Triple therapy remains an appropriate first-line therapy in areas of low clarithromycin resistance, and quadruple therapy should be the first-line therapy in areas of high clarithromycin resistance. Sequential therapy can be an alternative. Levofloxacin-containing regimens or concomitant therapies can be good choices for second-line therapy. Choice of treatment regimen for H. pylori infection should be done cautiously and antibiotic-resistance rates should be taken into consideration. |
