Abstract Introduction High-dose dual therapy (HDDT) can attain acceptable eradication rates provided that the optimal doses, timing and treatment duration are applied. The existing evidence still shows inconsistent reports ( 90% eradication rates for first-line H. pylori eradication as 14-day rabeprazole-containing HT did. HDDT is a potentially beneficial combination, which involves only two drugs with mild adverse effects; more precise studies are urged to find answers regarding these failures. This clinical trial was registered retrospectively on 28 November, 2021, as ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT05152004.
