NCT ID NCT07371325
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a probiotic supplement (Pediococcus acidilactici) could reduce metabolic problems like high cholesterol and blood sugar caused by antipsychotic drugs. 36 adults with first-episode psychosis or schizophrenia took the probiotic or a placebo alongside their regular medication. The goal was to see if the probiotic could improve heart health markers without changing the psychiatric treatment.
