Effects of Oral Administration of <i>Lactobacillus acidophilus</i> L-92 on the Symptoms and Serum Markers of Atopic Dermatitis in Children

Abstract

The results of the preliminary trial and the double-blinded, placebo-controlled study revealed a complementary effect of oral L-92 on the standard medical therapy (topical application of a steroid ointment) in patients with AD that was mediated, at least in part, by alterations in the Th1/Th2 balance.
