[|Human|] Hi, I had a colonoscopy and endoscopy last week and just found out i have h.pylori. I am very anemic and have been for 30yrs. My Dr. wants me to take antibiotics which I have many allergies to and also my sister passed away last year from c-diff. I really do not want to take the meds. Please advise. Clarithromycin 500mg, Omeprazole 20mg, Metronidazole 500mg. Thank you,Marie 53yrs old
[|AI|]  Hello. The only effective treatment for h.pylori is called triple therapy (omeprazole + two antibiotics). The most widely used regimen is omeprazole + amoxicillin + azithromycin. In patients allergic to amoxicillin, is replaced by metronidazole. Mentioned antibiotics are not related to c.difficile, even Metronidazole is used to treat infection by c.difficile. I wish you good health.(If the answer has helped you, please indicate this)
