ABSTRACT
Thirty patients treated with proton pump inhibitor and still having symptoms related to gastritis or peptic ulcers were subjected to upper gastrointestinal endoscopy and gastric biopsy for detection of giardiasis in these cases. Results showed presence of 3 [10%] cases of gastric giardiasis, intestinal metaplasia and presence of H. pylori in these cases. It was concluded that there may be a relation between the presence of gastric giardiasis and the intake of proton pump inhibitor
