Efficiency Study of Clarithromycin and Bismuth-containing Quadruple Therapy to Treat H.Pylori

June 1, 2013 updated by: Dr. HONG LU, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine
The purpose of this study is to observe the efficacy of ten day triple therapy-based, bismuth-containing quadruple therapy for H.pylori treatment.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The success rate of currently recommended triple therapy with a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) plus amoxicillin and clarithromycin has fallen into the unacceptable range. The purpose of this study is to observe the efficacy of ten day triple therapy-based, bismuth-containing quadruple therapy for H.pylori treatment, while ten day triple therapy is used as control.
