Comparison of efficacy of four different
Helicobacter pylori
eradication regimens in peptic ulcer
disease patients at a Medical University Hospital
I
n the study 63
H. pylori
positive patients with peptic ulcer disease were randomized for eradication therapy for
H. pylori
for two
weeks. Four regimens were used: ECA consisting of Esemoprazole (20 mg bid), Clarithromycin (500 mg bid) and Amoxicillin (1
gm bid), EAL- consisting of Esemoprazole (20mg bid), Amoxicillin (1gm bid), Levofloxaxin (500 mg once daily), EAT consisting
of Esemoprazole (20mg bid), Amoxicillin (1gm bid), Tetracycline (500 mg bid) and ETL consisting of Esemoprazole (20 mg bid),
Tetracycline (500mg bid) and Levofloxaxin (500 mg once daily). Out of 63 patients 13 dropped out. Six weeks after completion of
therapy upper GI endoscopy was repeated to see endoscopic improvement and RUT (rapid urease test) was carried out. Conclusive
result was obtained in 40 cases in RUT. Eradication therapy showed no statistically significant difference in different regimens
(p>0.05). Endoscopic improvement occurred in 33% to 71% patients in different regimens. Thirty six patients were found to be
RUT negative and 4 were found to be RUT positive. Negativity rate ranged from 83% to 100% in different regimens. This result
appears to be acceptable, good and even excellent with ETL.
