Simplified treatment for H. pylori guided by a stool test
Treatments studied
Part of Digestive system, Infections clinical trials.
This trial tests a simpler two-drug treatment for H. pylori infection, chosen based on a stool test that checks if the bacteria are resistant to clarithromycin. It may help people who have not been treated before avoid unnecessary antibiotics.
