helicobacter pylori is the main cause of gastric ulcer, adenocarcinoma and mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (malt) lymphoma. up to now, different regimens have been used for helicobacter pylori (h.pylori) eradication to find the most potent and cost-effective regimen with less side effects. the aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of standard triple therapy versus quadruple therap...

background: several large clinical trials and meta-analyses have shown about 20% failure to eradicate helicobacter pylori ( h. pylori ), necessitating investigations for second-line treatments. the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of clarithromycin-containing quadruple regimen after nitroimidazole-containing quadruple therapy failure. methods: thirty two patients who had failed 10-...

abstract background: triple therapy with a proton pump inhibitor, clarithromycin and amoxicillin and quadruple therapy with a proton pump inhibitor, bismuth citrate, metronidazole and amoxicillin have been proposed in maastricht 2000 as the optimal treatment of helicobacter pylori infection. we aimed to compare these two regimens in iranian pediatric patients. methods: a randomized clinical tri...

 ABSTRACT Background: Triple therapy with a proton pump inhibitor, clarithromycin and amoxicillin and quadruple therapy with a proton pump inhibitor, bismuth citrate, metronidazole and amoxicillin have been proposed in Maastricht 2000 as the optimal treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection.

background the use of quadruple therapy for helicobacter pylori ( h. pylori ) eradication is a highly efficacious, gold standard regimen. however, according to a num­ber of studies, this regimen has numerous compliance problems and adverse effects. in the current study we have evaluated the h. pylori eradication rate following a quadruple therapy that included omeprazole, bismuth subcitrate, am...

helicobacter pylori ( h. pylori ) infection is currently recognized as the major cause of chronic active gastritis, peptic ulcer disease and mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (malt) lymphoma and carcinoma of the stomach. eradication of the infection will prevent the recurrence of the majority of such diseases. different combined treatments have been tried in iran for eradication of h. pylori , ...

bility profile of a single-class four drug (quadruple) nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) regimen compared with a 2-class standard-of-care regimen. Methodology: A three-centre, randomized, open-label comparative pilot study of zidovudine/lamivudine/efavirenz (triple) versus abacavir/lamivudine/zidovudine/tenofovir (quadruple) therapy in HIV-1-infected, treatment-naive individuals...

Helicobacter pylori (H. Pylori) infection is currently recognized as the major cause of chronic active gastritis, peptic ulcer disease and mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma and carcinoma of the stomach. Eradication of the infection will prevent the recurrence of the majority of such diseases. Different combined treatments have been tried in Iran for eradication of H. Pylori, but...

BACKGROUND Evidence from randomized controlled trials supports the use of triple therapy. Research is required on the effectiveness of quadruple therapy in comparison to this and the relative effectiveness of specific highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) combinations. METHODS Antiretroviral-naive individuals (n = 53) with an HIV-1 viral load >100 000 copies/mL were randomized to recei...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Quadruple therapy is recommended as second-line treatment for Helicobacter pylori eradication failure. However, high cost, multiple side effects, and low adherence rates are major drawbacks to its routine use. Our aim was to compare the efficacy and safety of sequential versus quadruple regimens as second line treatment for persistent Helicobacter pylori infection. METHODS...
