Abstract:
Objective To compare the efficacy of 10-day sequential therapy (including rabeprazole amoxillin clarithromycin tinidazole) and 7-day traditional trigeminy therapy (including rabeprazole amoxillin and clarithromycin) in patients with duodenobulbar ulcer and Hp infection. Methods Ninty-five patients with duodenobulbar ulcer and Hp infection were enrolled into the study and divided into two groups randomly:sequential therapy group and traditional trigeminy therapy group. Patients in the first group received 10-day sequential medications:rabeprazole 10 mg plus amoxillin 1 g for the first 5 days,followed by rabeprazole 10 mg plus clarithromycin 500 mg and tinidazole 500 mg for another 5 days;while in the second group patients received the standard 7-day traditional triple medications:rabeprazole 10 mg plus clarithromycin 500 mg and tinidazole 400 mg. All drugs were given twice daily. All patients received rabeprazole 10 mg daily following the two types of therapys for another four weeks. Hp statuses were assessed by rapid urease test and 14C urea breath test at baseline and 4 weeks after completion of the treatment. Ulcer cicatrization was assessed by gastroscope. Results The eradication rate of Hp infection was significantly higher in sequential group than triple group (89.5%vs. 70. 2%, P < 0. 05 ), but we found no statistically significant difference in the comparison of the ulcer cicatrization rate between sequential group and triple group ( 87.5% vs. 82. 9%, P > 0. 05 ). Conclusion Sequential therapy had a better Hp eradication effect than standard triple therapy, but the eradication rate was very close between the two therapys.
