The content provides an overview of the available methods of infection diagnosis and recommended therapeutic schemes as well as potential alternative schedules of treatment. Mechanisms of H. pylori resistance to commonly used antibiotics including the mutations in the genome leading to resistance and the incidence of resistant strains in the world has been described. Finally, we introduced substances with some potential in eradication therapy, including probiotics, plant formulations as well as polyunsaturated fatty acids and ascorbic acid.
