Overview
Effective measures for the primary prevention of dyspepsia include avoiding long-term or extended use of medications such as NSAIDs, abstinence from alcohol, smoking cessation, coffee or acidic beverages, spicy foods and avoiding stress. Inculcating healthy eating habits, exercising regularly and maintaining healthy body weight may help in avoiding dyspepsia. Effective measures for primary prevention of the H. pylori infection include hand washing (antibacterial soaps), avoid contaminated food and water, maintain proper hygiene (hand sanitizers, antiseptic washes) and avoid close contact with infected family members ( e.g., kissing, sharing eating utensils and drinking glasses).
Primary Prevention
Effective measures for the primary prevention of dyspepsia include:
- Avoiding long term or extended use of medications such as NSAIDs (e.g. aspirin, naproxen, ibuprofen)
- Abstaining from excessive alcohol consumption is recommended
- Smoking cessation
- Decreasing consumption of excessive amounts of caffeine or acidic beverages
- Avoiding spicy foods
- Abstaining from illicit drugs such as cocaine
- Avoiding or reducing stress which may trigger excessive gastric acid secretion
- Inculcating healthy eating habits, exercising regularly and maintaining healthy body weight may help in avoiding dyspepsia
Effective measures for primary prevention of the H. pylori infection include:[1][2]
- Hand washing (antibacterial soaps)
- Avoid contaminated food and water
- Maintain proper hygiene (hand sanitizers, antiseptic washes)
- Avoid close contact with infected family members ( e.g., kissing, by sharing eating utensils and drinking glasses)
- H. pylori eradication is the treatment of choice for patients with peptic ulcer disease and low-grade MALT lymphoma.
- Test and treat strategy is recommended for to prevent peptic ulcer disease in NSAID users and for patients with non-ulcer dyspepsia.
