toxins and enzymes.
Patients should be advised against consuming contaminated food, water, and other consumables. Such factors exacerbate bacterial infection on the walls of the small intestine through releasing toxins and enzymes. Furthermore, it is imperative that the patient is advised to seek proper counseling. In addition, the interventions can be employed in the control, prevention, and management of H. pylori. Supporting and emphasizing programs on patient’s compliance with drugs, specifically, pharmacists will result in an increase in the number of patients who will be taking medication. While antibiotics are recommended, patients should be watchful of the side effects and report immediately to the healthcare facilities (Woo and Robinson, 2015). Patients are also encouraged to seek for medical checkups frequently. The earlier detection and treatment for this infection will result in a better positive result, unlike the late time action.
