Second-Line Levofloxacin-Based Triple Therapy's Efficiency for Helicobacter pylori Eradication in Patients With Peptic Ulcer

Abstract

Objectives: First-line standard eradication efficacy with lansoprazole, amoxicillin and clarithromycin regressed over 10 years. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of a levofloxacin-based regimen in patients with peptic ulcer after failure of the standard first-line H. pylori eradication therapy in a country with a high rate of infection.
