Best Answer

Ulcers can be caused by a bacteria called Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori). If this organism is present, the ulcer would be treated with a triple medication regimen; to include: Flagyl plus another antibiotic, antacids to neutralize acid in the stomach, a proton-pump inhibitor which will help heal an ulcer by decreasing acid production in the stomach, and Carafate which will coat an ulcer to allow it to heal.
