Correction of intestinal dysbacteriosis in elderly patients with the use of bifidobacterin introduced by different routes

The results of the correction of disturbances in intestinal microflora in elderly patients with the use of bifidumbacterin in the form of powder or suppositories are presented. The effectiveness of the rectal administration of bifidumbacterin (by microinjections through an enema or in suppositories) is shown in comparison with the oral administration of the preparation. The administration of bifidumbacterin in suppositories for 15 days resulted in decreased content of hemolytic Escherichia below the threshold of determination in all examined patients.
