Will helicobacter pylori treatment make you gain weight?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Treating h. Pylori will not make you gain weight. It may however, make you feel better so you can eat more which then may allow you to gain weight. The medications used to treat the infection have no effect on weight.
