Lacidofil®: Recent Study Reveals Promising Results for H. pylori Eradication

Among our most documented solutions is the probiotic formula, Lacidofil®, which combines two proprietary bacterial strains: L. rhamnosus Rosell®-11 and L. helveticus Rosell®-52. Supported by over 29 clinical trials, Lacidofil® has consistently shown its beneficial effects on maintaining healthy intestinal microbiota, leading to overall well-being in humans. A recent study [Kiattiweerasak, 2023] strengthens existing evidence that Lacidofil® is an effective adjuvant to standard therapy for Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication and reduces the side effects of antibiotics used in this therapy.

The benefits.

Lacidofil® decreases gastrointestinal discomfort and improves general health-related quality of life

The results demonstrate the efficacy and safety of Lacidofil® in statistically significantly increasing gastrointestinal comfort whilst improving general health-related quality of life at week six compared to the placebo group. The study also highlights that Lacidofil® can significantly increase the eradication rate of H. pylori.

Lacidofil® is available in over 20 countries, both as a standalone product and as an ingredient in combination with other strains. With a proven record of safe use and a robust pharmacovigilance program, Lacidofil® has earned Canadian approval for various health claims. These include promoting healthy microflora in infants as young as two months old, addressing Antibiotic-Associated Diarrhea (AAD), management of acute diarrhea, support of gastrointestinal balance during H. pylori eradication therapy, as well as offering non- specific general well-being benefits to pregnant women.

Lacidofil® is available in various forms, including powders, capsules, and drops, a versatility that meets current market probiotic solution demand.
