Review: Probiotics for induction of remission in Crohn’s disease
Probiotics can be used to manipulate the microbiome and have therefore been considered as a potential therapy for CD.
There is some evidence that probiotics benefit other gastrointestinal conditions, such as irritable bowel syndrome and ulcerative colitis, but their efficacy in CD is unclear. This is the first update of a Cochrane Review previously published in 2008.
