Recurrence Rate Comparison Between Esomeprazole and Lansoprazole in Eradicating Helicobacter Pylori Infection Among Children

May 16, 2023 updated by: Finni Kollins

Comparative Recurrence Rate Investigation of Esomeprazole Versus Lansoprazole in Triple-Combination Therapy to Eradicate Helicobacter Pylori Infection Among Pediatrics: Multicentre, Randomized, and Controlled Trials

This study aims to compare the recurrence rates of Esomeprazole and Lansoprazole in triple combination therapy to eradicate H.pylori infection in children. The participants were divided into two groups, those who received Esomeprazole and those who received Lansoprazole

Study Overview

Detailed Description

H. pylori eradication therapy is still contentious. A treatment that is uncomplicated, well-tolerated, and boasts an efficiency rate of more than 80% is recommended.

PPIs are a type of acid-sensitive drug which is most beneficial in preventing the degradation of drugs in the stomach. In developing countries, Esomeprazole and Lansoprazole were mainly selected as a drug of choice. Major influential factors such as Esomeprazole's additional antioxidant ability, are comparable to vitamin C. This is due to its ability to scavenge Diphenyl Picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radicals at low concentrations. Lansoprazole also possess similar ability, albeit needs a slightly higher concentration to reach a similar effect. In terms of IC50 values, both drugs have a substantial advantage over vitamin C, earning them the title of 'potentially ideal' agents in the treatment algorithm. Furthermore, numerous studies mention that children better tolerate PPIs.
