Abstract
Bismuth oxychloride produced by interaction of bismuth compounds with gastric acid is believed to damage Helicobacter pylori. The effect of bismuth salts on H. pylori in the presence of strong acid suppression is unknown. This randomized trial aimed to determine effects of bismuth subcitrate on H. pylori with and without acid suppression.
