Probably not...: If helicobacter pylori has been documented in association with your ulcer, then treatment of it is requisite.Not treating this bacteria places you at risk for ulcer non-healing, ulcer recurrence, ; even stomach cancer.There are a number of antibiotic combinations that work quite effectively in eradicating the infection. After completion of antibiotics, check stool to document clearance of the bug.

Doubtful: Eradicating h.Pylori requires very intensive treatment with strong antibiotics for a few weeks and i seriously doubt that homeopathy could achieve the same results.

Doubtful: H.Pylori is a very tough infection. Even with using 3 drug non-homeopathic therapy, it's a long course, and sometimes needs repeating. Of course, i doubt there is any harm in trying homeopathic treatment and getting tested to see if you are cured before trying another option! good luck!

Don't think so.: Homeopathy is magical thinking that is unlikely to cure anything but also unlikely to harm anything except emptying your wallet. Homeopathy purports that medicines become more potent the more diluted they become. It asserts that the water "remembers" properties of the compound that was in it and becomes a more powerful cure the more diluted it is made. Homeopathic drugs are expensive water.

Homeopathy ; ulcer: Many homeopathic remedies are known to help with peptic ulcer, not just one. The best for a given individual is found through careful case-taking with a professional homeopath. Killing h pylori is a different thing entirely, as homeopathy is focused on strengthening the person's deep-level resilience. (not everyone testing positive for h pylori has ulcers.) antibiotics kill the organism.
