Importance of probiotic treatment of children/infants infected with helicobacter pylori
The researchers have carried out an open controlled randomized study with the aim of assessing the efficiency of probiotic treatment, with the use of the Lynex preparation (Lek, Slovenia}, of the antibiotic-associated disturbances in the intestinal microflora that developed against the antihelicobacter therapy background. Kept under observation were thirty eight children/infants belonging to the main group and twenty one children/infants who belonged to the group of controls, all aged six to seventeen. It has been found that the prescribed probiotic preparation Lynex reduces the risk of occurrence of complications caused by antihelicobacter therapy, encourages normalization of the intestine microflora composition and promotes restoration of the metabolic activity of intestine microflora.
