Capsule enhances ulcer therapy over two days
Researchers at the University of Tromsø in Norway have developed an innovative drug capsule capable of remaining in the stomach for up to 48 hours. This allows for direct delivery of antibiotics to the bacteria responsible for stomach ulcers. The technique helps improve treatment effectiveness and reduce side effects associated with the heavy use of antibiotics, especially those caused by Helicobacter pylori bacteria, which is a leading cause of ulcers and increases the risk of stomach cancer. The capsule works by combining algae-derived materials with an industrial polymer loaded with the antibiotic; it dissolves in the stomach to release the medication gradually and can withstand stomach forces for up to two days. This offers a more effective and safer treatment option.
