==Overview==
==Overview==
Antimicrobial agent is indicated for patients with [[gastric ulcer|gastric]] or [[duodenal ulcer|duodenal peptic ulceration]] who are colonized with ''[[Helicobacter pylori]]'' and patients with [[MALT lymphoma]].  Eradication therapy should also be considered for patients with [[immune thrombocytopenic purpura]] who are ''[[H. pylori]]'' positive or patients who have undergone resection for early-stage [[gastric cancer]].  The use of antibiotics is discouraged in asymptomatic carriers.
Eradication of ''[[Helicobacter pylori]]'' with antimicrobial agents is indicated for patients with [[gastric ulcer|gastric]] or [[duodenal ulcer|duodenal peptic ulceration]] who are colonized with ''[[Helicobacter pylori]]'' and patients with [[MALT lymphoma]].  Eradication therapy should also be considered for patients with [[immune thrombocytopenic purpura]] who are ''[[H. pylori]]'' positive or patients who have undergone resection for early-stage [[gastric cancer]].  The use of antibiotics is discouraged in asymptomatic carriers.  


==Medical Therapy==
==Medical Therapy==
* Younger patients with ulcer-like symptoms are often treated with [[antacid]]s or [[H2 antagonist]]s before EGD is undertaken.[[Bismuth subsalicylate|Bismuth compounds]] may actually reduce or even clear organisms.

* Patients who are taking [[NSAIDs|nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories]] (NSAIDs) may also be prescribed a [[prostaglandin]] [[analog (chemistry)|analogue]] ([[Misoprostol]]) in order to help prevent peptic ulcers, which may be a side-effect of the NSAIDs.
 
* When ''H. pylori'' infection is present, the most effective treatments are combinations of 2 antibiotics (e.g. [[Erythromycin]],[[Ampicillin]], [[Amoxicillin]], [[Tetracycline]], [[Metronidazole]]) and 1 [[proton pump inhibitor]] (PPI). An effective combination would be [[Amoxicillin]] + [[Metronidazole]] + [[Pantoprazole]] (a PPI). In the absence of ''H. pylori'', long-term higher dose PPIs are often used.
 
* Treatment of ''H. pylori'' usually leads to clearing of infection, relief of symptoms and eventual healing of ulcers. Recurrence of infection can occur and retreatment may be required, if necessary with other antibiotics. Since the widespread use of PPI's in the 1990s, surgical procedures (like "highly selective [[vagotomy]]") for uncomplicated peptic ulcers  became obsolete.

===Diagnostic testing===
The American Journal of Gastroenterology guidelines recommend that '''endoscopy''' should be performed to rule out [[peptic ulcer disease]], esophagogastric [[malignancy]], and other rare upper gastrointestinal tract disease in the following settings:
* [[Dyspeptic]] patients <u>more than 55 years old</u> {{or2}}
* [[Dyspeptic]] patients with <u>alarm features</u>
:* [[Bleeding]]
:* [[Anemia]]
:* [[Early satiety]]
:* Unexplained [[weight loss]] (> 10% body weight)
:* Progressive [[dysphagia]]
:* [[Odynophagia]]
:* Persistent [[vomiting]]
:* A family history of gastrointestinal cancer
:* Previous esophagogastric [[malignancy]]
:* Previous documented [[peptic ulcer]], [[lymphadenopathy]], or an abdominal mass
In patients aged 55 years or younger with no alarm features, two management options may be considered:
* '''Test-and-treat strategy''' using a validated noninvasive test (urea breathing test or stool antigen test) for ''[[H. pylori]]'' and a trial of acid suppression if eradication is successful but symptoms do not resolve – preferable in populations with a moderate to high prevalence of ''[[H. pylori]]'' infection (≥ 10%)
* '''Empiric trial of acid suppression''' with a [[proton pump inhibitor]] for 4–8 weeks – preferable in low prevalence situations
Repeat [[endoscopy]] is not recommended once a firm diagnosis of functional [[dyspepsia]] has been established, unless new symptoms or alarm features develop.<ref>{{Cite journal| doi = 10.1111/j.1572-0241.2005.00225.x| issn = 0002-9270| volume = 100| issue = 10| pages = 2324–2337| last1 = Talley| first1 = Nicholas J.| last2 = Vakil| first2 = Nimish| last3 = Practice Parameters Committee of the American College of Gastroenterology| title = Guidelines for the management of dyspepsia| journal = The American Journal of Gastroenterology| date = 2005-10| pmid = 16181387}}</ref>  Testing to prove ''[[H. pylori]]'' eradication is most accurate if performed 4 weeks after the completion of therapy.<ref>{{Cite journal| doi = 10.1136/gutjnl-2012-302084| issn = 1468-3288| volume = 61| issue = 5| pages = 646–664| last1 = Malfertheiner| first1 = Peter| last2 = Megraud| first2 = Francis| last3 = O'Morain| first3 = Colm A.| last4 = Atherton| first4 = John| last5 = Axon| first5 = Anthony T.

===Treatment strategies===
* The use of high-dose (twice a day) [[PPI|proton pump inhibitor (PPI)]] increases the efficacy of triple therapy.
: [[Lansoprazole]] 30 mg q12h {{or2}}
: [[Omeprazole]] 20 mg q12h {{or2}}
: [[Esomeprazole]] 40 mg q24h {{or2}}
: [[Rabeprazole]] 20 mg q12h
* In areas of low clarithromycin resistance, '''[[clarithromycin]]-containing treatments (PCA or PCM)''' are recommended for first-line empirical treatment.  '''[[Bismuth]]-containing quadruple treatment''' is also an alternative.
* In areas of high clarithromycin resistance, '''[[bismuth]]-containing quadruple treatment''' is recommended for first-line empirical treatment.  If this regimen is not available, '''sequential treatment''' is recommended.
* Extending the duration of triple treatment from 7 to 10–14 days improves the eradication success rate and may be considered.
* After failure of a PPI-clarithromycin containing therapy, either a '''[[bismuth]]-containing quadruple treatment''' or '''[[levofloxacin]]-containing triple therapy (PLA)''' is recommended.
* After failure of second-line treatment, treatment should be guided by antimicrobial susceptibility testing whenever possible.
* The urea breath test or a laboratory based validated monoclonal stool test are both recommended as non-invasive tests for determining the success of eradication treatment.<ref>{{Cite journal| doi = 10.1136/gutjnl-2012-302084| issn = 1468-3288| volume = 61| issue = 5| pages = 646–664| last1 = Malfertheiner| first1 = Peter| last2 = Megraud| first2 = Francis| last3 = O'Morain| first3 = Colm A.| last4 = Atherton| first4 = John| last5 = Axon| first5 = Anthony T.

Overview

Eradication of Helicobacter pylori with antimicrobial agents is indicated for patients with gastric or duodenal peptic ulceration who are colonized with Helicobacter pylori and patients with MALT lymphoma. Eradication therapy should also be considered for patients with immune thrombocytopenic purpura who are H. pylori positive or patients who have undergone resection for early-stage gastric cancer. The use of antibiotics is discouraged in asymptomatic carriers.

Diagnostic testing

The American Journal of Gastroenterology guidelines recommend that endoscopy should be performed to rule out peptic ulcer disease, esophagogastric malignancy, and other rare upper gastrointestinal tract disease in the following settings:

In patients aged 55 years or younger with no alarm features, two management options may be considered:

  • Test-and-treat strategy using a validated noninvasive test (urea breathing test or stool antigen test) for H. pylori and a trial of acid suppression if eradication is successful but symptoms do not resolve – preferable in populations with a moderate to high prevalence of H. pylori infection (≥ 10%)
  • Empiric trial of acid suppression with a proton pump inhibitor for 4–8 weeks – preferable in low prevalence situations

Repeat endoscopy is not recommended once a firm diagnosis of functional dyspepsia has been established, unless new symptoms or alarm features develop.[1] Testing to prove H. pylori eradication is most accurate if performed 4 weeks after the completion of therapy.[2]

Treatment strategies

Lansoprazole 30 mg q12h
OR
Omeprazole 20 mg q12h
OR
Esomeprazole 40 mg q24h
OR
Rabeprazole 20 mg q12h
  • In areas of low clarithromycin resistance, clarithromycin-containing treatments (PCA or PCM) are recommended for first-line empirical treatment. Bismuth-containing quadruple treatment is also an alternative.
  • In areas of high clarithromycin resistance, bismuth-containing quadruple treatment is recommended for first-line empirical treatment. If this regimen is not available, sequential treatment is recommended.
  • Extending the duration of triple treatment from 7 to 10–14 days improves the eradication success rate and may be considered.
  • After failure of a PPI-clarithromycin containing therapy, either a bismuth-containing quadruple treatment or levofloxacin-containing triple therapy (PLA) is recommended.
  • After failure of second-line treatment, treatment should be guided by antimicrobial susceptibility testing whenever possible.
  • The urea breath test or a laboratory based validated monoclonal stool test are both recommended as non-invasive tests for determining the success of eradication treatment.[3]
