Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a resilient pathogen that may live for the rest of a person's life in their stomach. It causes persistent stomach inflammation. The typical treatment for H. pylori infection is triple therapy, which includes a proton pump inhibitor, clarithromycin, and either amoxicillin or metronidazole. The study was conducted on two groups of patients that have H. pylori infection at some of Zawia Clinics and Plasma Lab in Zawia city in Libya. Each group consisted of 50 patients ( different gender and age). The purpose of this study is to examine the function of a few well-known natural items that have been studied in clinical trials for preventing, modifying, or curing H. pylori infections. The goal of the study was to compare the efficacy of natural medicines with standard antibiotic therapy for H. pylori symptoms and the presence of the bacteria. The first step in this approach was to investigate the effects of medicinal herbs and natural products and probiotics. Finally, they were put to the test employing in vitro and in vivo H. pylori growth tests. The study results showed that 27 of the patients treated with antibiotics, anti-fungi, and Omeprazole (Triple therapy) still tested H. pylori positive, while only 14 of the patients treated with Alternative and Complementary Therapies tested positive. These results lead to the conclusion that complementary therapies were found to be more effective at treating H. pylori infection. It was discovered that 72% of bacteria were successfully eradicated by natural cures, compared to 46% by pharmacological treatments.
