I was wondering if intravenous antibiotics are used to treat H.pylori.
If so, how long is the duration of treatment?
How do the success rates compare to oral treatments?

yup, IV would work. It'll be 10 days. The success rate would be the same, but more expensive.

Situation like
1. patients cannot take tablets
2. patients cannot take the tablets on time.
3. patients who has potential to become allergic or may experience very bad site effect.
