Stool Antigen Test for H pylori

2024-06-18 02:47:30
Hello Doctor. I am taking ppi from 3 months, previously I had H-Pylori infection and took triple therapy. I still see I burp a lot if I stop PPI. I have stopped PPI three days back, now again burping has started. Can I do stool antigen test for hpylori to confirm eradication. Do i need to wait for two weeks before taking the test or can i take the test immediately? Please suggest.

Burping has no association with H. Pylori infection. If you are planning to get tested, you will need to wait for 2 weeks minimum after stopping PPIs
