Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is typically treated with a combination of antibiotics and medications that reduce stomach acid. This approach helps to eliminate the bacteria and promote healing of the stomach lining. Common antibiotics used include clarithromycin, amoxicillin, or metronidazole. To reduce stomach acid, doctors often prescribe proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) like omeprazole or lansoprazole. Treatment usually lasts for 10 to 14 days, and it’s important to take all medications as prescribed to ensure the infection is fully cleared. After treatment, a follow-up test may be done to confirm the bacteria is gone. Making dietary changes and avoiding alcohol or smoking can also help in the healing process.
