Patient's question:
When can I go for a re-examination after the eradication of Helicobacter pylori gastritis? How can the bacteria be completely killed?Doctor's answer:
The HP root treatment mainly involves a three-drug combination: "gastric mucosal protectants/proton pump inhibitors and two antibiotics." The general course of treatment lasts for about two weeks. If you receive regular treatment, you can undergo a follow-up examination after 3-4 weeks. In fact, having Helicobacter pylori is not at all. Patients should believe that they can overcome the illness. As long as symptoms are detected early and symptomatic treatment is provided, the chances of alleviating the condition and recovering are very high.
