Colipral® (Probiotic Strain Escherichia Coli 5C (ECP24®)) for Prevention of Recurrent Cystitis in Menopausal Women
Starting soon · Not applicable · Has a placebo group
Conditions studied: Recurrent Cystitis
In brief
Recurrent cystitis is a common condition in menopausal women and is associated with impaired quality of life and increased antibiotic use. This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Colipral® in preventing recurrent cystitis in menopausal women. Participants will be randomized to receive either Colipral® (probiotic strain Escherichia coli 5C (ECP24®)))or placebo for 12 weeks and will be followed for a total of 24 weeks. The study will assess the occurrence of symptomatic cystitis recurrences confirmed by urine culture, as well as symptoms, quality of life, urinary pain, and antibiotic consumption.
