31 Preliminary conclusion In controlled setting of clinical trials, probiotics and synbiotics are safe No significant difference between AEs in treatment and control groups Slightly protective effect Frequently documented clinical effect faster gastrointestinal transit, softer stools and reduced hospitalization duration Could reduce healthcare costs Probiotic efficacy remains controversial Approx. 20% does not show any efficacy 31
