Patient's question:
It has been thirty days. The doctor prescribed bismuth potassium citrate tablets, tinidazole tablets, clarithromycin tablets, and a bundled package, except for a single rabeprazole sodium enteric-coated capsule. I have been taking these medications and experiencing nausea, pain, bloating, and a lack of energy in my entire body. I don't want to eat dinner. Even without taking the medication, I still feel nausea, pain, and bloating, and the pain and nausea are even worse with these medications. Hello, is Helicobacter pylori infection type 1 more severe or type 2 more severe?Doctor's answer:
Helicobacter pylori infection is the most common bacterium that causes gastritis. If it is detected and symptoms appear, what treatment is required? Your treatment plan is the standard regimen for treating Helicobacter pylori, but the two antibiotics in it can significantly affect your stomach, so your symptoms may worsen or improve. Helicobacter pylori dislikes residing in the stomach and is an anaerobic bacterium, divided into Type I and Type II. Type I produces cytotoxins, with stronger toxicity, while Type II does not produce cytotoxins and has lower virulence. Type II is more commonly associated with chronic superficial gastritis.
