Aim: To investigate the resistance of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) to 6 commonly used antibiotics from 2000 to 2009 in Shanghai.
Methods: A total of 293 H.
Objective: Our aim was to compare the efficacy and safety of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication with pantoprazole-based 7-day standard triple therapy (PAC) and 10-day quadruple therapy (PBMT), and to study the primary resistance of H. pylori to amoxicillin, clarithromycin, metronidazole and tetracycline.
