Abstract
The use of antibiotics in the treatment of various diseases dramatically changes the quantitative and qualitative compositions of both pathogenic and symbiotic microbiota. Oral and parenteral use of antibacterial drugs affects and changes the quantitative and qualitative compositions of the intestinal microbiota, which subsequently entails changes in the cell development and long-term violations of physiology at all levels of functioning of the macroorganism. This study analyzed available data on modern probiotic drugs, which help improve the normal microbiota in the human body. The results revealed the undoubted effectiveness of various probiotics in acute and antibiotic-associated diarrhea and eradication of Helicobacter pylori.
