Part of Digestive system, Infections clinical trials.
This study tests how long (10 or 14 days) a combination of four medicines (bismuth quadruple therapy) should be taken to best treat H. pylori infection, and whether the best duration differs between women and men. It aims to find the shortest effective treatment to reduce side effects.
