Overview
- Younger patients with ulcer-like symptoms are often treated with antacids or H2 antagonists before EGD is undertaken.Bismuth compounds may actually reduce or even clear organisms.
- Patients who are taking nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs) may also be prescribed a prostaglandin 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.
Principles of Eradication Therapy for Helicobacter pylori infection
- Indications for diagnosis and treatment, established:[1]
- Active peptic ulcer disease.
- Confirmed history of peptic ulcer disease not previously treated for H. pylori.
- Gastric MALT lymphoma.
- After endoscopic resection of early gastric cancer.
- Uninvestigated dyspepsia (review H. pylori prevalence).
- Low clarithromycin resistance areas (<15%):[2]
- In areas of low resistance the PPI-clarithromycin-containing triple therapy is recommended as the first-line treatment as well as bismuth-containing quadruple therapy.
- In areas of low resistance after failure of a PPI-clarithromycin-containing treatment, either a bismuth-containing quadruple therapy or levofloxacin-containing triple therapy is recommended.
- High clarithromycin resistance areas (≥15%):[2]
- In areas of high resistance, bismuth-containing quadruple therapy are recommended for first-line treatment.
- In areas of high resistance after failure of bismuth containing quadruple therapy, levofloxacin containing triple therapy is recommended.
- After failure of second-line treatment, treatment should be guided by antimicrobial susceptibility testing.[2]
- FDA approved first line regimens duration:[1]
- Triple therapy: 7 days (10 days if rabeprazole).
- Quadruple therapy: 4 weeks.
- Confirm the eradication of H. pylori infection in patients who have had an H. pylori-associated ulcer or gastric MALT lymphoma or who have undergone resection for early gastric cancer.[3]
- The urea breathing test is the most reliable nonendoscopic test to document eradication of H. pylori infection.[1]
- Testing to prove H. pylori eradication is most accurate if performed at 4 weeks after the completion of eradication therapy.[3]
