Eradication of this microorganism improves the morphological picture of gastritis and provides long-term remission for peptic ulcers. Bismuth subcitrate is practically not absorbed, however, throughout the entire period of treatment with the drug, bismuth in minimal quantities still enters the systemic circulation. The concentration of bismuth in the blood decreases rapidly after completion of the course of therapy. The drug is mainly excreted in feces.
