Helicobacter pylori clearance in the treatment of non‐ulcer dyspepsia

Alimentary Pharmacology & Therapeutics, Volume 6, No. 1, Year 1992

One hundred and thirty north Nigerian patients with non‐ulcer dyspepsia were treated with tripotassium dicitrato bismuthate and amoxycillin, or antacid. Symptoms resolved in 28 (33%) of bismuth and amoxycillin recipients completing the trial compared with 1 (4%) of the antacid recipients. Symptomatic improvement did not relate to clearance of Helicobacter pylori. Copyright © 1992, Wiley Blackwell. All rights reserved
