Abstract
Diclofenac can cause gastric mucosal lesions, including ulcers, more easily than other NSAIDs. H. pylori infection is a high-risk factor for ulcers in patients receiving long-term NSAIDs therapy. In NSAID-treated patients, subjective symptoms are not grounds for a diagnosis of gastric mucosal lesions, especially ulcers.
