Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative StudyTen and eight-day sequential therapy in comparison to standard triple therapy for eradicating Helicobacter pylori infection: a randomized controlled study on efficacy and tolerability.
Sequential therapy (SQT) is effective in the eradication of Helicobacter pylori and could become an alternative to standard triple therapy (STT). ⋯ This study shows that SQT, for 8 or 10 days, is well tolerated and highly effective in H. pylori eradication and could represent a valid alternative to STT. Further studies, with more power, on larger populations and from other countries are necessary to validate the present findings.
