LGG for Prevention of Infectious Complications During PPI Treatment in Children

Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease Clinical Trial

Official title:
Effectiveness of Lactobacillus GG in the Prevention of Gastrointestinal and Respiratory Tract Infections in Children With Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease Treated With Proton Pump Inhibitors: Randomized Double - Blind Placebo, Controlled Trial.

Clinical Trial Summary

Background: Proton pump inhibitors (PPI) are effective for treating gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). However, they may be associated with an increased risk of gastrointestinal and respiratory tract infections.

Aim: To determine if Lactobacillus GG (LGG) is an effective adjunct to PPI for reducing the risk of gastrointestinal and respiratory tract infections in children with GERD.

Study design: Randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled trial.

Clinical Trial Description

Patients with GERD treated with PPI will be randomly assigned to receive LGG in dose of 10(9) Colony Forming Units (CFU) twice daily for 6 weeks or a comparable placebo twice daily for 6 weeks. ;

Study Design

Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Double Blind (Subject, Caregiver, Investigator), Primary Purpose: Prevention
