      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Not blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Other design features: The diagnosis is based on endoscopic biopsy and rapid urease test (RUT) and is performed by the therapist. After selecting the patients, a written consent form is given to the patients and while explaining about the common side effects and results of taking the drugs, the patient enters the study. The patient can be excluded from the study at any time, depending on his choice. The cost of drugs is provided by the researcher, the drugs are from one brand and will be delivered to the patient. Common side effects leading to discontinuation of the patient or dangerous side effects that require medication should not be continued (for example, nausea and gastrointestinal upset with antibiotics are common, and dangerous side effects such as hypersensitivity reactions, tendonitis). Therefore, in case of leaving the study due to drug side effects, it will be mentioned in the study results.  At the end of the fourth week after the treatment, the eradication is confirmed by a stool antigen test, and we will prove the effectiveness of the bacterial eradication treatment. Assessing the patient's acceptance in relation to the correct and complete use of drugs by the therapist and by observing the amount of remaining drugs and asking the patient directly every two weeks by phone and asking about the side effects of drugs, continuing treatment and creating the necessary knowledge about the importance of completing treatment will be done. If the patient takes the full course of fourteen days of antibiotic treatment, it will be considered as a complement to the treatment. All data will be completed in a questionnaire by the therapist (attached at the bottom of the questionnaire), Randomization description: These people are based on the method of simple randomization of numbers before starting the study with Random allocation software. No concealment is done for the reader and patients will be assigned to group A or B based on random numbers upon entry.</study_design>
