Use of oral bacteria therapy in childhood during acute enteritis and functional chronic diarrhea. Clinical experience | [L'uso della batterioterapia orale in età pediatrica in corso di enterite acuta e di diarrea cronica funzionale. Esperienza clinica.]

There are some theoretical reasons to give an oral bacterial therapy when intestinal ecosystem changes its composition. The authors would verify the clinical effectiveness or oral bacterial therapy during acute and functional chronic diarrhea: even if the course of the illness doesn't become shorter, oral bacterial therapy moreover may be useful in reducing the risk of having casual carries of pathogenic agents and may restore an intestinal ecosystem previously modified by antibiotic therapy.
