Abstract

Helicobacter pylori infection is a major global health concern, and its management has witnessed a revolutionary shift with the emergence of antibiotic resistance. In this review, I explore the mechanisms of H.pylori antibiotic resistance and highlight the critical need for susceptibility-based eradication treatments. The increasing prevalence of antibiotic-resistant strains requires innovative approaches to combat this resilient pathogen. I also delve into the importance of mass screening as a preventive strategy for early detection and intervention, describing my experience in Bhutan. Additionally, I explore promising alternatives, such as vaccination. The aim of this review is to provide insight into the evolving landscape of H.pylori treatment and highlight the need for a paradigm shift in the approach to combating this persistent bacterial infection.
