Comparative Treatment of <i>Helicobacter pylori</i>–Positive Duodenal Ulcer Using Pantoprazole at Low and High Doses Versus Omeprazole in Triple Therapy

Abstract

We found that 10-day triple therapy with amoxicillin, clarithromycin, and either pantoprazole, 80 mg daily, or omeprazole, 40 mg daily, is highly effective in ulcer healing and is very well tolerated, achieving the 90% cure recommended for an ideal first-line anti-H. pylori positive duodenal ulcer treatment regimen.
