NCT ID NCT06885632
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a probiotic gummy containing Weizmannia coagulans BC99 can reduce symptoms of allergic rhinitis (hay fever) in children aged 4 to 14. Over 8 weeks, half the children receive the probiotic gummy and half receive a placebo. Researchers track changes in nasal symptoms, immune markers, and gut metabolism to see if the probiotic offers relief.

What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a simple, non-drug way to reduce allergy symptoms like sneezing and runny nose in children.
