After treating H. pylori with tetralogy for 2 weeks and stopping the medication, heartburn in the stomach is usually due to adverse reactions such as acid reflux and heartburn caused by tetralogy.
H. pylori is mainly parasitized in the stomach in the human body and is closely related to the development of chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer, gastric cancer and other diseases. Therefore, if H. pylori is found to be positive during examination, eradication treatment of H. pylori is usually required, and the most commonly used clinical treatment is quadruple therapy.
Quadruple therapy mainly consists of a proton pump inhibitor (omeprazole, etc.) + two antibiotics (amoxicillin, clarithromycin, metronidazole, etc.) + a bismuth agent (bismuth potassium citrate, bismuth pectin, etc.), and the course of treatment is usually 2 weeks.
However, certain side effects may occur during the administration of quadruple therapy, such as nausea and vomiting, abdominal pain and distension, acid reflux and belching, constipation, black stools, skin rash, and so on. Treatment with quadruple therapy for 2 weeks and a burning sensation in the stomach after stopping the medication is usually caused by adverse reactions such as acid reflux and heartburn induced by the medication, and usually requires no special treatment. However, if the symptoms are serious, it is recommended to consult a doctor in time and receive treatment actively.
During the treatment of Quadruple Therapy, the medication should be taken strictly according to the doctor’s prescription, and should not change the dosage or stop the medication without authorization. At the end of the treatment for 1 month, another H. pylori test will be conducted to observe the effect of eradication.
