Evaluating the Efficacy of an Oral Probiotic in Acne Vulgaris
Study Details
The study aimed to assess the effectiveness of an oral probiotic in treating acne vulgaris in patients aged 12 to 30 years. The probiotic used was a capsule containing Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus (CECT 30031) and the cyanobacterium Arthrospira platensis (BEA_IDA_0074B).
Key Findings
Patients taking the probiotic showed a 50% improvement in the Acne Global Severity Scale, compared to 29.41% in the placebo group. There was a significant reduction in non-inflammatory acne lesions in the probiotic group, as well as a trend towards a reduction in total lesions. Additionally, 42.50% of patients in the probiotic group saw improvement according to the Global Acne Grading System, compared to 20.58% in the placebo group.
Conclusion
The probiotic used in the study was found to be effective and well-tolerated, suggesting its potential as a treatment option for acne vulgaris patients.
