Suggest Treatment For Recurrent H-pylori Infection

H-pylori has reocurred many times. Antibiotics have helped but it h-p continues to occur & i tried alternative help. Mastic Gum & MonoLaurin have worked in the past...but the gastritis has become out of control. I wonder if I ve been on Mastic Gum too long & if this is now causing it. The areas where I ve had the ulcers in the past are sore, but the gastritis is constantly bothersome.

Hello!

Thanks for using healthcaremagic.com

I read carefully your question and understand your concern.

I see similar cases amongst people who visit my clinic. In the first meeting, I advise my patients to go on lifestyle modifications for two months. I retest them again after three months.
I tell them to eat healthy and dont drink while they are eating, instead try to drink 30 minutes before every meal, or 1 hour after eating.

Bismuth subsalicylate, one of the components of Pepto-Bismol, i use on my patient to protect the lining of the stomach from acid. It also destroys H. pylori.

Kind regards,

Dr. Oscar Martinez
