Probiotic cocktail may shield Antibiotic-Exposed infants from allergies
NCT ID NCT07532421
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a specific mix of probiotics can prevent allergies in breastfed infants who received antibiotics within their first month of life. Researchers will give the probiotic or a placebo to 400 babies and track allergy development, gut bacteria changes, and growth over one year. The goal is to see if probiotics can restore healthy gut bacteria disrupted by antibiotics and reduce allergy risk.
