There is a highly interesting article about a research confirming efficacy of bismuth in killing drug-resistant bacteria. This seems to explain the high-success rate of bismuth-based H.Pylori therapies. The scientists believe that bismuth could be used concomittently with antibiotics not only for H.Pylori eradication but also for treating other bacterial infections.

Agree

yeah, i think so too Strands Game

That's fascinating, thanks for sharing! I’ve always been curious about alternative approaches to fighting resistant bacteria, and this really puts bismuth in a new light. If it can boost antibiotic effectiveness, it could make a huge difference in treatment outcomes. Definitely going to read more about this. Science never stops surprising us!

What was once just a stomach remedy may soon become an essential tool to boost antibiotics and help treat stubborn infections. While more clinical studies are needed before widespread use, the findings give real hope in an era where antibiotic resistance threatens modern medicine.

If this research is successfully expanded and applied clinically, bismuth could become an important lifesaver in preserving the efficacy of existing antibiotics and provide a new solution to the global antibiotic resistance crisis.

It's no longer research. Bismuth compounds are now a must for antibiotic-resistant cases.
