Simple breath test could predict best IBS treatment
NCT ID NCT03729271
Summary
This study aimed to see if a simple breath test could help doctors predict which patients with IBS-D (Irritable Bowel Syndrome with diarrhea) would respond best to treatment with the antibiotic rifaximin. About 148 participants took the breath test, received a 14-day course of the medication, and tracked their symptoms. The goal was to find a better way to match patients with a treatment that is more likely to work for them.
