What is the probiotic therapy in treatment of rota-virus gastroenteritis ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bifidobacter: A study done on 75 people in istanbul compared sacromyces boulardii and bifidobacter against nothing in children who got rotavirus. Both sacro b and bifidobacter helped improve more than nothing. So probably any probiotic would be better than nothing.
