What are the possible benefits and risks?

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Baseline assessment and daily recording during intervention up to day 7 measuring Gastrointestinal tolerance (time frame: 7 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
