If HP is positive, it indicates that Helicobacter pylori infection, this bacterium is generally positively correlated with chronic gastritis, duodenal ulcer and digestive tract tumor. Therefore, it is clinically recommended that if HP infection occurs, regular anti-HP treatment should be given. Quadruple therapy is generally used clinically, generally a proton pump inhibitor plus bismuth potassium citrate, plus two antibiotics. After 14 days of regular treatment, the eradication rate can reach more than 90%.
