Choice of optimal antihelicobacter (AH) treatment of ulcer.
249 outpatients with duodenal ulcer associated with Helicobacter pylori entered a blind multicenter controlled trial. The patients were given one of the following drugs: metronidazole, tonidazol, amoxicilline, clarithromycin, rovamycin, omeprazole, azitromycin.
Of all the drugs used, rovamycin appeared preferable as it has high AH activity, is safe and cost-effective.
Rovamycin has a high AH activity and can be applied for treatment of diseases associated with Helicobacter pylori as a drug of choice.
