简要总结
As per WHO dermatophytosis affects 25% of world population. There are only few anti-fungals available for treating the dermatophytosis, mainly belonging to only 2 anti-fungal families. This increases changes of cross-resistance. Further side effects of these drugs hamper effective treatment of mycoses. Probiotics are normal resident flora of gut, which can be formulated as different products. Lactic acid bacilli are commonly used as probiotics which have shown antifungal activities in vitro agaiinst dermatophytes. Hence this RCT is planned to evaluate the effect of administering probiotics as an adjuvant treatment in patients of dermatophytosis . Null hypothesis is : There will be no effect of probiotics on the various biochemical parameters in serum compared to a placebo.
