Specializes in Gastroenterology

No dietary changes.: changing your diet will not get rid of H pylori. There are several antibiotics, which when given for a week or two, will reliably get rid of the organism though. You should see your doctor if you have been diagnosed as having symptomatic H pylori infection. Good luck.
