Abstract
Aim: Considerably, about half of the world human population is infected by H. pylori. Current standard therapies against H. pylori are based on the use of one proton pump inhibitor plus two or more antibiotics the efficacy of this treatment has decreased, mainly due to the increase of antibiotic resistance but also to side effects. As regards to the antibiotics resistant and its side effects we tried to follow other therapies. The role of probiotics in the treatment of gastrointestinal infections has increased during some decades. One of the most important groups of probiotics is lactic acid bacteria. The aim of this study was to analyze the efficacy of Lactobacillus rhamnosus on gastric ulcer induced by Helicobacter pylori (ATCC43504).
