Enzyme trial aims to ease feeding woes for short gut patients

NCT ID NCT04604275

Summary

This study tested whether giving a supplemental enzyme (sucrase) could help people with short gut syndrome digest sugar better. The goal was to see if this allowed patients to tolerate more food by mouth or feeding tube, potentially reducing symptoms like stomach pain, bloating, and diarrhea. The trial was small and ended early.
