Study of efficacy of spray dried lactobacillus reuteri for helicobacter pylori infection treatment
Keywords:
efficacy, spray dried lactobacillus reuteri, helicobacter pylori infectionAbstract
The present study was conducted to study the effectiveness of spray dried Lactobacillus reuteri in treatment of Helicobacter pylori infection at a tertiary healthcare institute. We evaluated the compliance and outcome of spray dried Lactobacillus reuteri in the treatment of patients with Helicobacter pylori. In our study, we included patients who were positive for Helicobacter pylori on Rapid Urease test. We assessed Rapid urease test findings on follow up visit among the study subjects and observed that 63.64% study subjects reported Helicobacter pylori negative after treatment with spray dried Lactobacillus reuteri. The study showed that majority of the study subjects were females (54.55%), whereas 45.45% subjects were males, M:F ratio in the current study was 1:1.2. and the mean age of the study subjects was 41.61 ± 10.84 years. 54.55% study subjects belonged to rural area, whereas 45.45% subjects belonged to urban area. Our study’s results are comparable and similar to the other studies which show that Lactobacillus reuteri (Probiotics) are useful in the Helicobacter pylori infection treatment.
