Berberine 500mg three time daily for 14days, amoxicillin 1000 mg, esomeprazole 20 mg, and Bismuth 200mg by mouth, twice daily for 14 days.

Tetracycline 500mg three time daily for 14days,furazolidone 100 mg, esomeprazole 20 mg, and Bismuth 200mg by mouth, twice daily for 14 days.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Helicobacter pylori eradication
The primary end point of this study is H.pylori eradication,established by negative urea breath test,rapid urease test or helicobacter pylori stool antigen test 28 days after the end of treatment.

Secondary Outcome Measures

symptoms effective rates
Evaluation effective rate of symptoms 2 weeks of treatment and 4 weeks after the end of treatment. Symptom effective rate =(total score before treatment - total score after treatment)/total score before treatment x 100%. Total score = frequency * severity. Frequency score is calculated by all the frequency of heartburn, reflux, abdominal pain, and flatulence. Severity is accumulated by the degree of symptoms described above, which is divided to 4 degree as 0 presenting none, and 3 presenting most severe
adverse events
Participants with Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability.The common side effects of the study include headache, dizziness, skin rash, other gastrointestinal disorders, pyrexia, cough and back pain.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This study aims at evaluating efficacy and safety of berberine- amoxicillin containing quadruple therapy(berberine, amoxicillin, esomeprazole and bismuth) versus tetracycline-furazolidone quadruple therapy (tetracycline, furazolidone, esomeprazole and bismuth) in H. pylori rescue therapy. It is hypothesized that berberine-amoxicillin containing quadruple therapy is non-inferior to tetracycline-furazolidone quadruple therapy. Patients with confirmed failure of H. pylori eradication will be randomized to one of the treatments described above. At week 6 follow-up visits, a urea breath test,rapid urease test or helicobacter pylori stool antigen test will be performed to confirm eradication.
Detailed Description
Detailed Description: The study will include three phases: screening, treatment and follow-up. Screening: this phase will last a maximum of 14 days and subjects eligibility will be evaluated after signing informed consent. One of urea breath test,rapid urease test or helicobacter pylori stool antigen test will be performed in addition to the baseline routine evaluations. Treatment: Subjects are randomly assigned to treatment and will be treated for 14 days. A randomization visit will take place on Day 0 and an end-of-treatment visit will take place between day 13 and 17. Follow-up: includes one visits. Approximately 28 days after the end of treatment. Eradication of H. Pylori will be confirmed by one of urea breath test,rapid urease test or helicobacter pylori stool antigen test。
