Summary

This study tested whether a moisturizer containing postbiotic Saccharomyces and Lactobacillus can reduce the risk of eczema returning in children aged 0-6 years who are in remission. 98 children used either the special emollient or a standard one for 12 weeks. The goal was to see if the postbiotic cream could keep flare-ups away better than routine care.
