The status of antimicrobial resistance of Helicobacter pylori in eastern Europe

Abstract: In eastern Europe, primary H. pylori resistance to metronidazole is considerable, and that to clarithromycin is similar to or slightly higher than that in western Europe. Resistance to amoxicillin, ciprofloxacin and tetracycline was detected in several centers. Primary and post-treatment resistance rates vary greatly between centers.

“…The standard treatment for H. pylori infections has depended on antibiotics in combination with proton pump inhibitors (3). Despite the efficacy of such treatment for the resolution of gastritis and a decrease in the relapse rate of duodenal ulcers, the resistance of H. pylori to antibiotics is increasing (5). Therefore, there is a need for development of new strategies to control H. pylori infection and disease.…”

“…Therefore, the ideal treatment for H. pylori infection is still far from being reached and more effective and better tolerated alternative regimens are needed (16). Conversely, resistance to fluoroquinolones remains a rare occurrence, varying from 3.3% in France (17), 4.7% in the Netherlands (18), 3.9% in five Eastern European countries (19), and a high resistance rate of 20.9% in Portugal (20). And the data on the primary resistance to moxifloxicin are limited.…”
