Abstract
The article presents a systematized review of the literature data on the role of adequate acid suppression in the treatment of Helicobacter pylori-associated diseases. The increased pH levels in the stomach correlate with the efficacy of eradication therapy. Thus, minimal inhibitory concentrations of amoxicillin, clarithromycin and metronidazole decrease at higher pH levels, increasing the Helicobacter pylori sensitivity to these antibacterial drugs. In addition, the increased pH levels in the stomach contribute to the stability of some antibacterial agents, which increases the likelihood of eradication success.
