diagnosis of gastroduodenal
_Helicobacter_
_pylori_
infection.
4.2
POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Pylobactell is not recommended for use in children below the age of 18
years due to
insufficient data on efficacy.
The Pylobactell tablet is for oral administration.
_Adults_
: The tablet is to be dissolved in water and taken 10 minutes after
the start of the breath
test procedure.
The patient should fast for at least 4 hours before the test so that
the test is taken on an empty
stomach. If the patient has eaten a heavy meal then it will be
necessary to fast for six hours
prior to the test.
It is important to follow the instructions for use described in
Section 6.6 adequately, otherwise
the validity of the test result will be questionable.
4.3
CONTRAINDICATIONS
The test must not be used in patients with documented or suspected
gastric infection that
might interfere with the urea breath test.
Hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the excipients
listed in section 6.1.
4.4
SPECIAL WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
A positive urea breath test alone does not clinically confirm that
eradication therapy is
indicated. Alternative diagnosis with invasive endoscopic methods
might be indicated in
3
order to examine the presence of any other complicating conditions,
eg. gastric ulcer,
autoimmune gastritis and malignancies.
In individual cases of atrophic gastritis, the breath test result may
have a false positive
outcome and other tests may be required to confirm the presence of
_H.pylori_
.
If a repeat test is required, it should not be carried out until the
following day
