Assessing Role of Probiotics in Children Aged 6-36 Months Treated for Pneumonia
Sponsor: Anabio R&D
Summary
The main questions this study aims to answer are: * Does using probiotic nasal spray (LiveSpo Navax containing Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus clausii, 1x10\^9 CFU/mL), with or without oral probiotics (LiveSpo Pregmom containing Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus clausii, and Bacillus coagulans, 3x10\^9 CFU/5 mL), help children recover better from pneumonia when added to standard medical treatment? * Does using these adjunctive probiotics support reduce the recurrence of respiratory and gastrointestinal symptoms after hospital discharge? Researchers will compare three groups of children to see whether probiotic nasal spray alone or probiotic nasal spray combined with oral probiotics works better than placebo. All participants will receive standard medical treatment for pneumonia. In addition, they will be randomly assigned to one of three study groups to receive adjunctive probiotic support in 2 months: * Control group: receives a saline nasal-throat spray (0.9% NaCl) and oral placebo liquid (RO water). * Nasal probiotic group: receives a probiotic LiveSpo® Navax nasal-throat spray and oral placebo liquid (RO water). * Nasal plus oral probiotic group: receives a probiotic LiveSpo® Navax nasal-throat spray plus LiveSpo® Preg-Mom oral probiotic suspension. Participants will: * Use a nasal-throat spray three times a day. * Take an oral liquid twice daily. * Start using the study products during their hospital stay and continue for 8 weeks (2 months) from admission. * Be followed by the study team during hospitalization and at Day 30 and Day 60 after admission. The probiotic and placebo products look, smell, and taste the same so that neither the parents nor the study staff know which product each child receives.
