Is Helicobacter pylori infusion therapy useful?

Helicobacter pylori is relatively unfamiliar to many people. It is a kind of bacteria, and Helicobacter pylori infection can easily cause gastritis. Many people wonder whether Helicobacter pylori infusion therapy is useful. In general, intravenous therapy for Helicobacter pylori is not common.

1. Whether it is gastric bloating or the treatment of gastric or duodenal infection with Helicobacter pylori, taking medicine is the most economical, direct and effective, because the treatment measure of infusion is generally for emergency cases and systemic diseases, and its therapeutic effect is more obvious. What you said are only local diseases and local lesions of the digestive system. Oral medications are absorbed through the digestive tract and act on the digestive tract first, so the effect of oral medication should not be lower than (or even higher than) infusion treatment. For simple gastric bloating, generally, drugs such as Martinlin can be used to increase gastric motility. If it is ulcerative gastric bloating, you should take drugs such as Lizudele and Clarithromycin that can effectively kill Helicobacter pylori. At the same time, in order to reduce the stimulation of gastric acid on ulcers, you can also take omeprazole or famotidine to inhibit the secretion of gastric acid.

2. If there are no digestive tract symptoms, no treatment is required for the time being. If a physical examination reveals that you are infected with Hp, and you have active gastritis or peptic ulcer, and have symptoms such as stomach pain, bloating, heartburn, and belching, you must receive regular anti-Hp treatment while treating these diseases. If there is a family history of gastric cancer, more attention should be paid to treatment. Eliminating Helicobacter pylori infection in the stomach can reduce the risk of gastric precancerous lesions and gastric cancer by 40%. At present, most scholars believe that if a person does not have the above diseases and has no symptoms, there is no need for antibacterial treatment even if a physical examination finds that he or she has been infected with Hp. If you have not had a physical examination and feel that you have some symptoms of stomach problems, you can go to the hospital for examination. The diagnosis can be confirmed through C14 isotope labeling (C14 breath test) or endoscopic mucosal biopsy and rapid urease test.

3. The most important goal of regular treatment is to eliminate Helicobacter pylori and reduce the recurrence rate. The more mature treatment plan recognized internationally is "triple therapy", which is a proton pump inhibitor plus two antibiotics, or bismuth plus two antibiotics (generally antibiotics to which the strain is sensitive are used), and treatment is carried out for one or two weeks depending on the severity of the infection.
