Sequential Therapy versus Standard Triple-Drug Therapy for <i>Helicobacter pylori</i> Eradication

Abstract

Sequential therapy is statistically significant compared with standard therapy for eradicating H. pylori infection and is statistically significantly more effective in patients with clarithromycin-resistant strains. Side effects are similar with both treatment regimens and are rarely severe enough to cause discontinuation of therapy. ClinicalTrials.gov registration number: NCT00403364.
