A drug may be classified by the chemical type of the active ingredient or by the way it is used to treat a particular condition. Each drug can be classified into one or more drug classes.
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.
