Purpose: To determine the success rate of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication using a Bismuth-containing quadruple regimen, identify factors related to the effectiveness of this regimen, and determine the rate of side effects associated with the Bismuth-containing quadruple regimen.
Methods: This prospective cohort study involved cases of H. pylori infection diagnosed by gastroscopy, treated with the Bismuth-containing quadruple regimen, and re-evaluated using a breath test at Branch 2 - the University Medical Center Ho Chi Minh City from March 2023 to July 2024.
Results: The success rate of H. pylori eradication in the study was 73.8% according to ITT (Intention to Treat) analysis and 91.4% according to PP (Per Protocol) analysis. No factors related to the treatment’s effectiveness were found. 53% of cases experienced side effects during treatment. The most common side effects were nausea (50%), fatigue (48.8%), bitter taste (40%), bloating (26.3%), and early satiety (36.3%). Most of these symptoms were mild (>50%).
Conclusion: The Bismuth-containing quadruple regimen indicated in our study for H. pylori eradication is highly effective. The regimen is commonly associated with side effects, the most frequent being nausea, fatigue, and a bitter taste.
