Accordingly, the Japanese Helicobacter treatment guidelines recommend prescribing P-CAB for eradication treatment. In 2018, a new P-CAB, tegoprazan, was developed in Korea and approved for gastric ulcer treatment. Subsequently, it was proven effective in the treatment of reflux esophagitis compared to PPIs in a non-inferiority clinical trial. P-CAB can increase the gastric pH to 6 or higher within 7 hours after taking tegoprazan. Because tegoprazan can be taken after meals, it can improve patient compliance for H. pylori eradication. Unlike vonoprazan in Japan,
