Can probiotic drops soothe baby tummies and skin?
NCT ID NCT07444008
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether a daily probiotic supplement called BioAmicus Complete can help infants with colic, constipation, diarrhea, and eczema. 140 babies will receive either the probiotic drops or a placebo (sunflower oil) for 25 days. Researchers will track changes in stool, crying, reflux, and skin symptoms to see if the supplement provides relief.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- BioAmicus Complete (a mixture of 10 strains of lacto- and bifidobacteria)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could offer a simple, natural option to help babies with common tummy troubles and skin symptoms linked to food allergies.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage study with no phase designation, so results are uncertain. The supplement may work no better than placebo, and individual babies may not respond.
