Abstract

The article discusses the problem of bacterial biofilms formed by various microorganisms, including in the organs of the gastrointestinal tract. Helicobacter pylori can form a biofilms, and plays a crucial role in the development of peptic ulcer disease. It is emphasized that the use of eradication schemes with the drugs, potentially affecting the structure of H. pylori biofilm, allows to achieve the best results of eradication therapy. This is confirmed by a long and successful use of clarithromycin, having specific effects on microbial biofilms, in the first-line eradication therapy.
