Brief Summary:
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effects of a Food Supplement containing calcium butyrate, vitamin D, and zinc, on the variation of intestinal microbiota and prevention of antibiotic-induced diarrhea, in individuals who have been prescribed antibiotic therapy. The main questions it aims to answer is:
Does Dibuzin improve the microbiota composition in patients undergoing antibiotic treatment? Does Dibuzin prevent antibiotic-induced diarrhea? Participants will: - take 2 capsules/day of DBZ (1 /morning and 1 /evening, away from meals) for 14 gg. -Visit the clinic two times ( T0 and at the end), collect three fecal samples, and fill out two questionnaires 3 times.
Detailed Description:
Antibiotic-associated diarrhea (AAD) is an important morbidity resulting from antibiotic use. AAD is more than a bothersome adverse event of antibiotic treatment; it is associated with prescription noncompliance and overuse of second-line antibiotics. Any antibiotic could potentially cause AAD, but broad-spectrum antibiotics that predominantly target anaerobes and are poorly absorbed, have a higher AAD incidence. Alterations in the diversity of the gut microbiota are believed to underlie the development of antibiotic-associated diarrhea, likewise, micronutrient deficiencies can exacerbate both barrier leak and morbidity.
The use of SCFAs, such as butyrate, along with vitamin D and zinc, each possessing unique properties that contribute to enhancing the microbiota, controlling inflammation, and promoting a healthy intestinal barrier, may be beneficial in the prevention of AAD.
The proposed dietary supplement contains butyrate, vitamin D, and zinc, and is presented as a potential product useful in the prevention of AAD.
