Breath, stool, biopsy and other tests have different uses. Acid-suppressing medicine, antibiotics and bismuth can affect some results, so test preparation matters.

H. pylori and peptic-ulcer disease: confirm, treat and verify appropriately
H. pylori can contribute to gastritis and ulcers, but symptoms alone cannot confirm infection. The choice and timing of testing affect whether the result is reliable.

Conceptual educational visualisation — not diagnostic imagery01 / BEGIN WITH THE PATTERN
Does this sound familiar?
H. pylori can contribute to gastritis and ulcers, but symptoms alone cannot confirm infection. The choice and timing of testing affect whether the result is reliable.
You do not need to identify the diagnosis yourself. Bring the pattern, previous treatment and what still feels unexplained.
03 / WHAT MATTERS NOW
Understand what changes treatment, monitoring or the need for further investigation.
Cause, severity, warning signs and the value of further investigation must be considered together.
Treatment is followed by confirmation when indicated
The regimen depends on allergy, previous antibiotic exposure and local considerations. Completing treatment and confirming eradication at the appropriate time may be important.
- Previous H. pylori treatment
- Medicine allergies
- Anti-inflammatory painkiller use
- Ulcer or bleeding history
- Current acid-suppressing medicine
Bleeding symptoms need urgent review
Vomiting blood, black stool, fainting, severe weakness or sudden severe abdominal pain requires urgent medical care.
