Heliobacter Pylori and Non-ulcer Dyspepsia.
There is no definitive therapy for this disorder. Heliobacter pylori eradication therapy is only useful in areas with a high prevalence of H. pylori-related ulcer disease Proton pump inhibitors are effective in short-term treatment for dyspepsia with a predominant symptom of epigastric pain Prokinetic agents may be useful in some patients, particularly those with dysmotility-like dyspepsia, but serious side effects limit their usefulness.
