Q: Peptic Ulcer?
I have a Peptic ulcer caused by Helicobacter pylori infection.. I have been to see many doctors and they dont help, most subscribe a medicine called Nexium to put me on but it doest help.. does anyone know any remedies to help rid Helicobacter pylori infection? thanks.

A: There are ANTIBIOTIC regimens to eradicate H.Pylori , they are updated every several years according to variation in sensitivity and new drugs appearing , but you still need a doctors prescription .
I think the most recent one consists of Amoxicillin plus Metronidazole or Clarithromycin .
However here is a folk medicine you could use :
Gather PEELS of POMEGRANATES and let them SOAK in water for some time .
The water color will become BROWNISH RED .
This extract is RICH in antioxidants and natural antibiotics , plus it is alkaline which helps neutralize stomach acid .
It has been proven to help HEART disease a lot , but it’s use against ulcer and stomach disease is little known .
I’ve tried it myself AND IT WORKS , even when taken by itself .
Try it , and if it works out for you , the LEAST you could do is give me BEST ANSWER .

Q: peptic ulcer!!!…………?
what is the drug and non-drug treatment of peptic ulcer?

A: Treatment
Younger patients with ulcer-like symptoms are often treated with antacids or H2 antagonists before EGD is undertaken. Bismuth compounds may actually reduce or even clear organisms.

Patients who are taking nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs) may also be prescribed a prostaglandin analogue (Misoprostol) in order to help prevent peptic ulcers, which may be a side-effect of the NSAIDs.

When H. pylori infection is present, the most effective treatments are combinations of 2 antibiotics (e.g. Clarithromycin, Amoxicillin, Tetracycline, Metronidazole) and 1 proton pump inhibitor (PPI), sometimes together with a bismuth compound. In complicated, treatment-resistant cases, 3 antibiotics (e.g. amoxicillin + clarithromycin + metronidazole) may be used together with a PPI and sometimes with bismuth compound. An effective first-line therapy for uncomplicated cases would be Amoxicillin + Metronidazole + Rabeprazole (a PPI). In the absence of H. pylori, long-term higher dose PPIs are often used.

Treatment of H. pylori usually leads to clearing of infection, relief of symptoms and eventual healing of ulcers. Recurrence of infection can occur and retreatment may be required, if necessary with other antibiotics. Since the widespread use of PPI’s in the 1990s, surgical procedures (like “highly selective vagotomy”) for uncomplicated peptic ulcers became obsolete.

Perforated peptic ulcer is a surgical emergency and requires surgical repair of the perforation. Most bleeding ulcers require endoscopy urgently to stop bleeding with cautery or injection.

Q: Peptic ulcer?
I am 27 years old and I recently had a baby (7 weeks ago). Since then, I’ve been having a dull pain and bloating around my upper stomach, by my breast bone. It gets worse after eating, and the discomfort sometimes radiate to my back and chest. My obgyn said it has nothing to do with recently having a baby and assumes it’s just heartburn. I’ve been taking protonix, with no relief. I am going back to my GI doctor next week. Has anyone has a peptic ulcer and does it sound like what I am experiencing?

Q: What is my peptic ulcer risk from daily coffee drinking? Doctors help me out, please?
I drink a cup of coffee 1-4 times daily, depending on the day (usually 2 cups). I have recently read in a medical journal that coffee increases the production of gastric acids which can cause peptic ulcers. Does this mean I am at risk for developing ulcers due to my regular coffee consumption?

Advice from MD or DO doctors would be greatly appreciated.

Do you need any extra information? I am a 17 year old hispanic/caucasian male.

A: The caffeine in the coffee isn’t good for you. I had ulcers when I was younger but the things you need to avoid most is acidic foods, fried and spicy foods and soda pops, they recommend you shake most of the acid out before drinking them if you must drink pop. A couple of cups of coffee a day won’t hurt but I would drink decaf if I had more than 2 cups a day, plus decaf will let you sleep better.

Q: What are the physiological reasons for peptic ulcer pain?

Q: What effect is a before-dinner cocktail have on digestion?Why is it inadvisable to persons w/ peptic ulcer?
What effect is a before-dinner cocktail likely to have on digestion?Why are such beverages inadvisable to persons w/ peptic ulcer?

A: At optimum levels, alcohol increases appitite and is said to stimulate the secretion of gastric fluids that aids in digestion.
People suffering from peptic ulcer have problems with their gastric mucosa (it prevents the stomach-acid from burning the stomach lining) and alcohol further detoriates this condition by disturbing this protective layer. This exacerbates the existing ulceration.

Q: why do patients who severe peptic ulcer disease have to eat small quantities of food frequently ?

A: To neutralize the acid in stomach which continuosly secreted sometimes even on empty stomach

Q: Can I use cephalexin to cure my peptic ulcer?
I recently just got my second peptic ulcer, a friend had some extra cephalexin, if I took this would it help cure my ulcer? Also my second question is I am allergic to ammoxicillin what are the possibilities of me being allergic to cephalexin?
Is there any over the counter antibiotics I can use to cure the ulcer?

A: Just because you are allergic to penicillin doesn’t mean you will be allergic to cephalexin – it is a different type of antibiotic.

But it is not a good idea taking medication that has not been prescribed for you. This is not a good antibiotic for treating infections in the gastrointestinal tract so probably won’t help. How do you know you have got a second peptic ulcer? Has it been diagnosed? Because whoever diagnosed it should be recommending the appropriate treatment. Other antibiotics like metronidazole and tetracycline work better for peptic ulcers and are normally used in combination with an acid suppressor.

It is better to see a Doctor who can put you on the right treatment. It is no good taking antibiotics that won’t help because you might become resistant to them and if you need them in the future they may not work as well as they should

Q: how would you encourage someone with ulcers to get on the peptic ulcer diet?
i have to do a paper on the peptic ulcer diet and one of the questions i have to answer in my paper is how would you encourage someone with ulcers to get on the peptic ulcer diet? i need to have the paper done by friday so i hope i get my answer soon!!!!

A: In my medical experience, there is no such thing as a peptic ulcer diet.

There are 2 main causes of PUD. If the ulcer is caused by H. pylori bacteria, antibiotics will be necessary to reverse the damage. If it is caused by NSAID over-use (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, ie aspirin), you need to discontinue using the NSAID.

As far as food and diets go, you can eat whatever you like as tolerated by the pain of the ulcer.
