Treatment of the acute infant's diarrhoea and prevention of allergic reactions to foods swallowed in the following phase by administering lactobacillus gg in the oral rehydrating solution

摘要

The early administration of Lactobacillus GG during the rehydrating phase is capable of shortening the duration of the diarrhoea, preventing the following food allergy syndrome in the patient, and promoting a faster weight increase. To this purpose there is provided a preparation to be administered by mouth and formed of an oral rehydrating solution (ORS) of the commercial type, such as Dicodral 60, in which an effective amount of both alive and inactivated ferments Lactobacillus GG is contained.
