Zinc-enhanced therapy improves eradication
We explored the effectiveness of a modified bismuth quadruple therapy that includes zinc carnosine, in comparison to the traditional triple therapy for treating indigestion caused by Helicobacter pylori infection. In our study, 92 patients with symptoms of dyspepsia and positive breath tests were randomly assigned to receive either the conventional treatment of esomeprazole, amoxicillin, and clarithromycin for 14 days, or a shorter 10-day course of the new therapy that also included bismuth subcitrate and zinc carnosine.

The results were quite revealing. Our findings showed that the modified bismuth quadruple therapy group had a significantly higher eradication rate of 93.5%, compared to 69.6% in the standard treatment group. This suggests that the addition of zinc carnosine to the treatment regimen could enhance the effectiveness of indigestion relief. Importantly, the side effects reported between the two groups were similar, with only mild dizziness noted in those receiving the new therapy.

Overall, the study indicates that a shorter course of therapy that includes zinc carnosine may be a superior option for individuals suffering from indigestion related to Helicobacter pylori. This approach not only appears to work better but also does not lead to more serious side effects, making it an appealing alternative to traditional treatment methods.

No indigestion
Good ingredients and good value for money. It's 50mg, so I'm sharing it. There's no indigestion or bloating, and the brand is popular; Naugo is recommended.

No indigestion with meals
I take it with meals to avoid indigestion, as the zinc can be quite strong. They're easy-to-swallow round tablets from a trusted brand.

Excellent! It's important for immunity and skin health, but be careful to take it with dairy, as it can cause indigestion.

Burps from indigestion
It's good, but if taken at the wrong time, you'll get burps like you have indigestion. It's probably an issue with the ingredients. It's fine if taken properly.
