Probiotics

for Gastroenteritis

Probiotics (particularly Lactobacillus GG and Saccharomyces boulardii) to reduce duration and severity of infectious diarrhoea.

How it works

Probiotics compete with pathogenic organisms, produce antimicrobial substances and modulate immune responses to infection.

What to watch for

Start as early as possible. Strain-specific effects - Lactobacillus GG and S. boulardii have the strongest evidence.
