Hi,

Do you know if your friend has been confirmed with breath test that she is still infected with H. pylori? alternatively, H. pylori can also be proven by histology via endoscopy.

Hi there,

you probably can go see a GP (or specialist) and discuss with them about our treatment published last year.

The summary of the treatment is in the following link

We have quite a high cure rate (95%) for PBRC treatment. PBRC stands for PPI + bismuth (or denol) + rifabutin + ciprofloxacin.

This treatment is usually given to patients who are allergic to penicillin. Discuss with your doctor about the possibility of getting these drugs and the side effect management.
