ANTIMICROBIAL AGENTS
For patients with peptic ulcer disease
(duodenal or gastric ulcers) who are
infected with H. pylori
H. pylori is diagnosed via:
a. endoscopic biopsy of the gastric
mucosa
b. various noninvasive methods - serology
and urea breath tests
ANTIMICROBIAL AGENTS
Eradication of H. pylori
rapid healing of
active ulcers and low recurrence rates
Successful eradication of H. pylori (80% to 90%) is
possible with various combinations of antimicrobial
drugs.
Triple therapy therapy of choice
PPI combined with amoxicillin (metronidazole may be
used in penicillin-allergic patients) + clarithromycin
Quadruple therapy considered in areas with high
resistance to clarithromycin; results in a 90% or greater
eradication rate
PPI + bismuth subsalicylate + metronidazole +
tetracycline
Substitution of
antibiotics
Do not substitute
ampicillin for amoxicillin
or doxycycline for
tetracycline

Effective in promoting the healing of

Excreted mainly in

Prophylactic use of misoprostol
should be considered in patients who
are taking NSAIDs and are at moderate

such as elderly patients and those with
previous ulcers
C/I: pregnancy ( stimulate uterine
contractions and cause miscarriage)

Sucralfate
Aluminum hydroxide + sulfated
sucrose binds to positively
charged groups in proteins of both
normal and necrotic mucosa
By forming complex gels with
epithelial cells, sucralfate creates a
physical barrier that protects the
ulcer from pepsin and acid, allowing
the ulcer to heal.

duodenal ulcers and prevention of
