Core Tip |
Reflux esophagitis (RE) recurrences cause significant physical pain and financial burden to patients. Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are the first-line treatment for RE. Although PPIs provide notable symptomatic relief, their effects on the gut microbiota have drawn attention. In the present study, we evaluate the effectiveness of combining esomeprazole with probiotics [Bacillus subtilis (B. subtilis) and Enterococcus faecium (E. faecium)]. We found that the combined administration could reduce the incidence of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth and improve abdominal symptoms in patients with RE. It may also prolong the time to relapse, showing the potential of probiotics (B. subtilis and E. faecium) for the treatment and management of RE. |
