Antibiotic-associated diarrhea in children hospitalized with pneumonia and preventive effect of bifidobacterium animalis ssp. lactis B94 use: a single-center, retrospective preliminary observational report
This preliminary observational study suggests the incidence of AAD is low among children hospitalized with pneumonia without comorbid diseases. Prophylactic use of Bifidobacterium animalis ssp. lactis B94 may reduce the risk of diarrhea, though larger prospective studies are needed for confirmation.
