International guidelines for Helicobacter pylori recommend that the regional prevalence of Helicobacter pylori antibiotic resistance be used to select the right antibiotic and treatment regimen. In fact, knowing the level of antibiotic resistance plays an important role in choosing the appropriate treatment and reducing the rate of treatment failures. When the prevalence of clarithromycin resistance in an area is more than 20%, guidelines recommend that allergy testing for Helicobacter pylori be performed before treatment with this antibiotic.As clarithromycin is the standard treatment for Helicobacter pylori and is prescribed experimentally in most countries, several studies have shown that resistance to this antibiotic is increasing to more than 20% in most areas.
