Abstract
Background and Aim
There is regional variation in the eradication rates of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) regimens depending on the local antibiotic resistance patterns. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacies of triple, quadruple and sequential antibiotic therapy in eradicating H. pylori infection.
Methods
A total of 296 H. pylori-positive patients were randomized to receive one of the three regimens (triple, quadruple or sequential antibiotic therapy) and eradication rate was assessed by H. pylori stool antigen test.
Results
The eradication rates of standard triple therapy, sequential therapy and quadruple therapy were 93%, 92.9% and 96.4%, respectively (p = 0.57).
Conclusion
Fourteen days of standard triple therapy, 14 days of bismuth-based quadruple therapy and 10 days of sequential therapy are equally efficacious in eradicating H. pylori and all regimens have optimum H. pylori eradication rates.
