I was prescribed the Nexpro HP Kit for 14 days to treat an H. pylori infection, but I am still experiencing stomach burning and gas after three days. Is this normal?

Asked by Female, 38 · 4 days ago

Yes, this is normal. The Nexpro HP Kit contains strong antibiotics and an acid reducer. At day three, the H. pylori infection is still being treated, and your stomach lining needs more time to fully heal. Furthermore, the antibiotics can temporarily disrupt your gut bacteria, commonly causing side effects like gas, bloating, or mild nausea. It is crucial to complete the entire 14-day course to completely eradicate the bacteria and prevent resistance. However, if you experience severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, severe watery diarrhea, or an allergic reaction (like a rash), please contact your doctor immediately.
