Preventing Recurrent Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding in Patients With Helicobacter Pylori Infection Who Are Taking Low-Dose Aspirin or Naproxen

Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of intravenous omeprazole on recurrent bleeding after endoscopic treatment of bleeding peptic ulcers.

TL;DR: In this article, the use of a high dose of a proton-pump inhibitor would reduce the frequency of recurrent bleeding after endoscopic treatment of bleeding peptic ulcers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clopidogrel versus aspirin and esomeprazole to prevent recurrent ulcer bleeding.
