Multi-Strain Probiotics Supplementation With Standard Care in Mild to Moderate Ulcerative Colitis
Recruiting now · Not applicable · Has a placebo group
Conditions studied: Ulcerative Colitis
In brief
Probiotics are one of the adjunctive treatments that have been extensively explored for Ulcerative colitis (UC) disease management. Probiotics, a group of beneficial bacteria, can bring various health benefits when adequately supplied to the body, especially for gut wellness. In particular, for UC patients, gut dysbiosis is one of the contributing factors in their pathogenesis. Thus, the supplementation of probiotics in combination with standard treatment can potentially help in relieving symptoms as well as promoting mucosal healing for long-term remission.
