The average age of patients was 61.6 ± 4.13 years, the duration of diabetes — from 2 to 15 years (on average – 9.9 ± 2.5 years), gender composition — 21 men and 99 women. The patients were divided into two groups by simple randomization. In the first group (n = 60), the first line eradication therapy was carried out according to Maastricht V recommendations, in the second group (n = 60) underwent eradication therapy combined with «Uvinskaya» mineral water. The diagnosis of «chronic gastritis» was histologically verified in all patients. The eradication control was carried out 4 weeks after therapy.

Conclusion. The amplification of the positive therapeutic effects of drug treatment and drinking balneotherapy provides a significant increase in the efficiency of eradication, improving the clinical course and forecast of chronic gastritis associated with Helicobacter Pylori in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
