H pylori infection not getting eradicate

2024-05-02 04:39:56
I have a h pylori infection for which I took antibiotics amoxicillin and Clarithromycin . The infection did not clear up with first line treatment . So had a second course of antibiotics with higher strength amoxicillin and Clarithromycin. After the completion of second line treatment , h pylori still shows up positive . Please advice.
