Abstract

At present, antisecretory drugs —foremost among them the proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) — represent a keystone in Helicobacter pylori eradication therapy. The present article shall first compare the role of PPIs as compared with histamine H2 receptor antagonists, both of them in the role of antibiotic-associated antisecretory therapy, and shall then address the contribution of each of the various PPIs that have been developed until the present time to the H. pylori eradication therapies. In summary, it may be concluded that PPIs are more effective overall than H2 receptor antagonists when the two groups of antisecretory drugs are given at the usual standard doses together with antibiotics with the intention of eradicating H. pylori infection. However, all PPIs (omeprazole, lansoprazole, pantoprazole, rabeprazole, and esomeprazole) are equivalent when given together with two antibiotics to cure the infection.
