Brief Summary

Helicobacter pylori infection is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. More than 50% of the global population is estimated to be infected. In 2015, there were approximately 4.4 billion individuals with H pylori infection worldwide. In Pakistan the prevalence of H. pylori infection, highest (63%) in middle age (41-60 years) group while lowest (33%) in teens and pre-teens (\<20 years) group. In young age (20-40) and old age (\>60 years) groups, the prevalence of H. pylori was 55% and 60% respectively. In conventional system of medicine H. pylori infection is treated by triple regimen antibiotic therapy that are amoxicillin, clarithromycin and metronidazole along with acid reducing proton pump inhibitor. Due to recurrence of infection this therapy is repeated multiple times resulting in drug resistance and long term side effects. These side effects \& a long term impact of H. pylori in patient general health necessitates development of a safe and long term effective therapy.
