Abstract
The article presents the results of a pilot prospective randomized study aimed at evaluating the efficacy and safety of rebamipide (Rebagit, PRO.MED.CS Praha a.s., Czech Republic) as part of the triple therapy for helicobacter pylori (H. Pylori) eradication. 54 patients with H. pylori-associated gastric ulcer/duodenal ulcer were enrolled to the study. All patients were randomized to two therapeutic groups depending on the eradication therapy to be received. Group 1 received the standard triple therapy, Group 2 received the standard triple therapy plus rebamipide. The efficacy of H. pylori eradication in Group 1 amounted to 78,2% (ITT), 81,8% (PP), and in Group 2 to 83,8% (ITT), 86,6% (PP). Odd ratio of efficient eradication with the use of rebamipide as part of standard triple therapy for helicobacter pylori eradication was 1,44 (95 CI: 0,36–5,72). The side effect rates between the groups were comparable
