Probiotic trial to help gut changes caused by acid-reducing pills
Treatments studied
This study tests whether a probiotic called Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG can improve gut bacteria changes caused by proton pump inhibitors (acid-reducing medicines). It mainly involves people who are otherwise healthy and do not currently have ongoing stomach or gut symptoms.
