Abstract

Nowadays dyspepsia syndrome is a common problem in the practice of gastroenterologists and general practitioners. To diagnose functional dyspepsia, Helicobacter pylori-associated gastritis must be excluded. However, the efficacy of H. pylori eradication in relieving dyspeptic symptoms requires to be studied more.

The aim of current review is to systematize the available literature data on the nature of dyspepsia syndrome clinical course in post-eradication period.
