Bajaj, J. S.
- Abstract
The author reflects on a commentary on their randomised trial of Lactobacillus GG in liver cirrhosis patients and minimal hepatic encephalopathy (HE). He discusses the regulatory requirements for probiotics in the U.S. and notes that it was conducted with no ambiguity on probiotic constituents. He adds that the safety profile of probiotics for HE therapy was not remarkable.
