Dear Friend..
H.Pylori kit has usually 2 antibiotics and 1 proton pump inhibitor.
Some people find it difficult to tolerate the antibiotics specially tinidazole.
It also contains clarithromycin antibiotic.
If she is not having any allergic reaction like rash, fever she can continue the kit.
She may be feeling nauseous that is side effect of these antibiotics.
She will develp tolerance to these symptoms, if still the symptoms persists, you can meet your doctor or write to us, will substitute the antibiotic for H.pylori.
Dont forget to attach reports
