简要总结
This randomized study evaluates the usefulness of the I31 probiotic formula, alone or in combination with alverine/simethicone, against placebo, in the treatment of diarrhea-predominant or mixed irritable bowel syndrome
详细描述
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a functional gastrointestinal disease in which recurrent abdominal pain is associated with defecation or a change in bowel habits. Disordered bowel habits are typically present (ie, constipation, diarrhea, or a mix of constipation and diarrhea), as are symptoms of abdominal bloating/distention.
I31 is a probiotic formula composed of strains Pediococcus acidilactici CECT7483 and Lactobacillus plantarum CECT7484 and CECT7485, previously shown to improve quality of life in patients with IBS of Caucasian descent.
Alverine/simethicone is a combination of two drugs: Alverine citrate relaxes muscle cramps that occur in the intestine in conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome and diverticulosis. Simethicone is an antifoam administered orally. Reduces gas formation and facilitates its elimination from the digestive tract
