H. pylori eradication agents

What are H. pylori eradication agents?

Agents used in treatment of Helicobacter Pylori are medicines used for stomach acid inhibition, combined with antibacterial agents. Treatment is for one week with a proton pump inhibitor or an antacid (or antisecretory agents), and two appropriate antibacterial agents. This one week triple therapy does give a good eradication rate.
