Patient's question:
I have had stomach bloating for two years, accompanied by upper abdominal pain. I have taken many medications and have been tested at the local county hospital, where it was found to be Helicobacter pylori double-positive, accompanied by gastritis. Currently, I am taking medication, including Rabeprazole, Amoxicillin, Anwei Granules, and Levofloxacin. I have been taking it for 5 days, but the pain on the left side still persists. How can Helicobacter pylori beed?Doctor's answer:
Before treating Helicobacter pylori, it is important to pay attention to oral hygiene. Currently, common medications used to treat Helicobacter pylori include amoxicillin, metronidazole, clarithromycin, tetracycline, doxycycline, furazolidone, colloidal bismuth organic compounds (such as de-nol), Weidele (Weisule), Lehe Wei, Xipi powder, and Gushu. For ulcer patients, proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) or H2 receptor antagonists can be appropriately combined with two antibiotics, or a PPI (such as omeprazole) with one antibiotic. The treatment duration is generally two 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.
