Acid peptic disease (APD) is a prevalent disease, it affects around 5-10% of the general population worldwide, but with notable regional and racial variations. In the United States, acid peptic disease (APD) affects approximately 4.5 million people annually. Approximately 10% of the US population has evidence of a duodenal ulcer at some time. Of those infected with H pylori, the lifetime prevalence is approximately 20%. Only about 10% of young persons have H pylori infection; the proportion of people with the infection increases steadily with age.
