Abstract
to compare the efficacy and safety of a tailored quadruple concomitant therapy based on body weight, with the same scheme but with fixed doses in obese patients undergoing bariatric surgery. a prospective study was performed of 104 obese patients. the weight-based therapy group achieved significantly higher eradication rates in the intention-to-treat analysis; 86.3 % (95 % CI: 74.3-93.2) vs 66.1 % (95 % CI: 52.6-77.3), p < 0.05. Relative risk: 1.31 (95 % CI: 1.05-1.63). Discontinuations and adverse events were similar in both groups. a tailored quadruple concomitant therapy based on body weight seems to be more effective than the standard quadruple concomitant therapy in obese patients.
