[Lactobacilli in the treatment of dyspepsia due to dysmicrobia of various causes].
In 30 patients with dyspepsia caused by dysbacteriosis of the gastrointestinal tract the authors administered the preparation Lactobacillus acidophilus (Rossel Co. Canada)--1. capsule with 2 billion live bacteria, in the morning after breakfast. The patients were divided into four groups: maldigestion, malabsorption, radiation enterocolitis and administration of antibiotics. The patients recorded themselves their subjective symptoms: pain, pressure, bloating, flatulence and appetite, and as to objective symptoms, the number and consistency of bowel movements, changes of body weight. The most rapid effect was achieved in dysbioses after antibiotics--within 3-4 days normalization occurred which persisted even after discontinuation of the drug. In maldigestion after one week bloating, flatulence, abdominal pain and pressure in the epigastrium was milder, and within two weeks the condition improved further. An excellent effect was achieved in radiation enterocolitis. In patients with lactose intolerance the tolerance of dairy products improved. No side-effects were observed, the preparation was very well tolerated; the mean body weight increment was 0.75 kg in three weeks. The preparation proved a new useful probiotic which is highly effective in dyspepsias caused by dysbiosis of the intestinal microflora.
