I just finished treatment 2 days ago for h pylori. It was two weeks on omeprazole, clarithromycin and Metronidazol for two weeks. The original pain I was having was heartburn, bloating and a pain on my side just under my rib cage. The antibiotics gave me diarrhea several times each day. I still have the diarrhea, as well as the heartburn and pain on my side.
is this pain on my side something else? A hernia? A really bad ulcer?

What is Prevpac?
Drug Name: LANSOP/AMOX/CLARITHRO ORAL
Other Brand Names: Prevpac
Uses: This product is used to treat stomach/intestinal ulcers caused by the bacteria H. pylori and to prevent the ulcers from returning. Treating an ulcer reduces the risk of serious damage to the lining of the stomach/intestines (such as bleeding, tearing, blockage). Lansoprazole is known as a proton pump inhibitor (PPI).
infection with helicobacter pylori and use of nonsteroidal anti inflammatory medications (NSAID). Although you are on PPI you need therapy for H pylori. Helicobacter pylori, also known as H. pylori, is a bacterium that is commonly found in the stomach. It is present in approximately one-half of the world's population. The vast majority of people infected with H. pylori infection have no symptoms and will never develop problems. No single drug cures H. pylori infection.
Patm comes from h pylori for sure. I was disgnosed with h pylori after getting an endoscopy done. I’ve been taking meds for it’s. It’s a lot of medication. It’s clarithromycin 500, amoxicillin 500 mg, Lansaprozal 30 mg twice a day for about 10 days. I noticed a huge difference. People are not reacting to me as much. It hasn’t gone away completely but it’s been reduced to about 50% and I just started taking it 2 days ago.
Burping may be the symptom in another problem - H. pylori infection of your stomach, which may be confirmed by a breath test.
Having non-acidic foods is a good advice, also avoiding vit C, aspirin and other acidic analgetics like ibuprophen. Also avoid anything sugary, including all fruits or fruit juices. Prune jice is the worst choice here.
You won't solve diarhea with any diet, you have to check and treat C-diff, if this is the case.
also fresh blood in stool. Went to emergency and the doc after examining said asked for blood test for H pylori (he mentioned there was no trace of piles etc). The blood test was positive and now I am under triple regimen ..(clarithromycin, amoxil, omeprazole) and am asked to take them for two weeks and after that go for another H pylori test which will most probably be negative.
My bleeding has stopped since then (took lots of liquids so the stool is softer).
My question is ...
That test checks to see if substances that trigger the immune system to fight an H. pylori infection - H. pylori antigens- are present in your stool. The stool antigen testing may be done to help support a diagnosis of H. pylori infection. OR to determine whether treatment for an H. pylori infection has been successful.
This is not the stool antibody test. Make sure you specify that when you talk to the doc.
Hello dear experts, help me please. I have H pylori. Doctor prescribed: clarithromycin 500 mg (1 tablet twice a day), omeprazole 20 mg (1 tablet twice a day) and amoxicillin 500 mg (2 tablets twice a day). After just talking first and second doses I have bitter taste in my mouth. In addition, I feel weak and little scared. I am thinking, may be it is side effect or the medicine just has a bitter taste.
i think it is not goining by antibiotic alone or garlic alone, i think H. Pylori can be treated by quadruple therapy for one week Esomeprazole (Nexium) + Clarithromycin (clacid) + Metronidazole (flagyl) + (Lactobacillus reuteri (i.e. biogaia) after the antibiotic course it has a suppression effect on h.pylori and prevent its occurance).
It sounds like Helicobacter Pylori, or H-Pylori. Ask your doctor! Today, the standard triple therapy is amoxicillin, clarithromycin and a proton pump inhibitor such as omeprazole. At times, probiotics have been used.
A patient with gastritis, or peptic/duodenal ulcers may also have the presence of H-pylori.

Good luck! And let me know how you are doing!
So this is day nine on the prilosec and day seven on the antibiotics (Ammoxicillin and clarithromycin)for the H pylori. My symptoms are still there SOMETIMES after eating. For the most part it has been a bland diet, except for the exception of a hamburger yesterday which caused extreme discomfort. Could this be a side effect of the medicine or my stomach trying to heal still? Please let me know if I should tough it out with the antibiotics or could this be something else?
Hi I started triple therapy for h pylori last Tuesday evening. Amxocilian and clarithromycin are my two antibiotics, two x's daily for 10 days. I was scheduled to start my period yesterday (Sunday)5 days after taking the antibiotic pills and have not be late for over two years of taking the pill. I am taking Ortho tri cyclen. I also came down with a cold yesterday. Is it normal to be late?
There is no known relationship between H. pylori and the polyps. The polyps will not disappear by themselves. Polyps in any portion of the GI tract are a general 'warning' sign, and should be removed. Since the only way the polyps can be reached in the GB is via GB removal, that surgery should be done. The older recommendation was to wait to see if they grow, the newer recommendation is to have the GB removed.
Anyone can get H. pylori again.
The endoscopy resulted finding severe gastritis and positive results for H Pylori. Today it has been 6 days into a 10 day antiobiotic treatment (Tetracycline 250 mg and Clarithromycin 500 mgthe treatment along with Omeprazol twice a day. I have heard of the pain in the discomfort of the upper stomach associated with the bacteria among other things however; my biggest problem is the distended abdomen.
Of these routes of infection, person-to-person transmission is by far the most common. If you want to avoid H. pylori infection, good personal hygiene and safe food preparation methods are the best primary defense.
But once you are infected, is there any way to get rid of H. pylori? Fortunately, there is.
Gastroscopy showed h pylori gastritis and a presence of excess bile in the stomach. Triple therapy antibiotics prescribed (lansoprazole, amoxi and clarithromycin), he says he feels a lot better, but i'm worried sick. He says he still gets an ache but it comes and goes and is not constant, he says that certain foods seem to make him feel worse, am I right in believing you can eradicate the h pylori but the gastritis takes time to heal?
the following few days i had tremors anxiety and could not sleep this lasted a few days. then i had an appointment with gp who told me i had h pylori from a test the month previous i was given 3 tablets to cure it and 1 of them was ammoxicillin and again after 3 days the same symptoms came back. i was told that i react badly to ammoxicillin and was given different meds which are ok.
