Saccharomyces Boulardii, a friendly yeast with no side effects, will be the treatment in the majority of cases.
Sacchromyces Boullardi is a friendly, Non-Pathogenic, yeast
which acts as a biotherapeutic agent. Controlled clinical trials have
demonstrated the efficacy of Saccromyces Boullardi for preventing or treating
several intestinal disorders including:
• AAD - antibiotic associated diarrhea
• C difficile
• enterocolopathies
• acute gastroenteritis
• traveler's diarrhea
• Irritable Bowel Syndrome
In the journal Alimentary Pharmacology and Therapeutics,
1-MAR-2005; 21(5): 583-90
M. Kotowska, et al., studied...
“Saccharomyces boulardii in the prevention of
antibiotic-associated diarrhoea in children: a randomized double-blind
placebo-controlled trial.”
CONCLUSION: This is the first randomized-controlled trial
evidence that S. boulardii effectively reduces the risk of
antibiotic-associated diarrhoea in children.
In the Journal of Tropical Pediatrics, 01-AUG-2004; 50(4): 234-6
O Erdeve, et al., studied
“The probiotic effect of Saccharomyces boulardii in a
pediatric age group.”
The aim of this study was to determine the efficacy of S.
boulardii in diarrhea associated with commonly used antibiotics...
...In the group receiving SAM [sulbactam-ampicillin] where
S. boulardii use was found to be significant, the use of S. boulardii decreased
the diarrhea rate from 32.3 to 11.4 per cent in the 1-5 years age group (p <
0.05). This is a pioneering study investigating combined antibiotic and
probiotic use in pediatric diarrhea patients.
