H. pylori testing and treatment in Riyadh
H. pylori is a common cause of indigestion and ulcers, and treating it lowers the risk of stomach cancer. At DIGEST we diagnose it with a breath test or an endoscopic biopsy, prescribe an effective regimen that accounts for common antibiotic resistance, then confirm eradication with a test after treatment.

Frequently asked questions
What is the best test?
The breath test is accurate and painless for most people. Endoscopy is used when symptoms call for looking at the stomach directly.
Does it come back after treatment?
Recurrence is rare after confirmed eradication, which is why we always do a test of cure.
Should family members be tested?
Testing is advised for those with symptoms or a family history of stomach cancer.
How long does the result take?
Breath-test results are usually available within the same visit.
