• H. pylori is a common chronic infection, affecting 1 in 4 children* and at least 30% of adults in the United States1-3


• When symptoms occur, they may include burning, bloating, belching, vomiting, flatulence, abdominal pain, halitosis, nausea, and loss of appetite†4-6


– Children may present gnawing or burning pain in the epigastrium, nausea, vomiting, or loss of appetite—but infection is not often clinically apparent6-8


• Guidelines recommend‡ a test-and-treat strategy using noninvasive methods, such as urea
