    • Abstract:
      A therapeutic intervention study was conducted in 57 patients who were diagnosed with peptic ulcer at the Endoscopy Department of "Dr. Juan Bruno Zayas Alfonso" Teaching General Hospital of Santiago de Cuba, from September 2009 to the same month of 2010, in order to assess the impact of the triple therapy on this condition. In the series a higher incidence of the peptic ulcer was observed in the group aged 36-45 years, as well as a prevalence of the male sex, with a time of disease progression that exceeded 12 months. Likewise, patients presented with epigastralgia as the most frequent symptom, and erythematous antral gastritis and duodenal ulcer as the most common conditions, with high Helicobacter pylori positivity and a favorable reaction after applying the treatment to eliminate it.
