Summary

This study tests whether a probiotic called Streptococcus salivarius Evol12 can help children aged 3 to 11 who often get tonsillitis. About 200 children will take either the probiotic or a placebo for 3 months, then switch after a short break. The goal is to see if the probiotic reduces the number and length of tonsillitis episodes, antibiotic use, and school absences.
