Suggest Medication For H. Pylori
I was diagnosed with HP Pylori and did the 10 days antibiotic treatment, that was more than a couple of months ago. But recently I starting feeling bloated again and some discomfort in my throat, dry throat and trouble swallowing, should i take omaprozole or Pepcid. Also I have Zantax but it expired on September this year. Is it safe to take it?

Hi, i do care for your concern.
i would suggest
first confirm the presence of h.pylori by doing breath test.
If confirmed its advisable to start on h.pylori kit, which consist of antibiotic and PPI, this would help you a lot, and will provide complete remission.
taking expired drugs is completely contraindicated, if consumed may produce adverse effects.
Hope I have answered your question. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help.
