Experimental
14 days PBMT group
7 days tailored therapy group
Giving the 14 days bismuth quadruple regimen as 2nd rescue therapy for eradication of persistent H. pylori infection Drug regimen Proton pump inhibitor (PPI) regular dose b.i.d., tripotassium dicitrate bismuthate 300 mg q.i.d. (three tablets at 30 min before meals and one tablet at 2 hours after dinner), metronidazole 500 mg t.i.d., and tetracycline 500 mg q.i.d
According the antimicrobial susceptibility testing, the H. pylori isolates were resistant to moxifloxacin, 7 days PBMT regimen were prescribed; if the isolates were resistant to metronidazole, 7 days moxiflxacin based triple regimen (PPI regular dose b.i.d., moxifloxacin 400 mg q.d., and amoxicillin 1g b.i.d) were prescribed.
