Prevention of respiratory tract infections with bacterial lysate OM-85 bronchomunal in children and adults: a state of the art

Abstract: Respiratory tract infections (RTIs) are a leading cause of morbidity and also represent a cause of death in some parts of the world. The treatment of RTIs implies a continuous search for stronger therapies and represents an economical burden for health services and society. In this context the prevention of infections is absolutely required. The use of bacterial lysates as immuno-modulators to boost immunological response is widely debated. Aim of this review is to summarize the main clinical studies on the ef… Show more

“…First, it is conceivable that a better understanding of the specific microbial components associated with positive or negative health outcomes may allow us to synthesize pharmaceutical products that reproduce or block the effects of the microbiota, much like streptomycin was derived from the actinobacterium Streptomyces griseus. Interestingly, extracts from different combinations of killed pathogenic bacteria have been used as oral naturopathic products to prevent infections in Europe and elsewhere (29). Recently, these products have been tested in animal models of airway inflammation with encouraging results (30,31).…”

“…В целом в ряде исследований по оценке клинической эффективности Бронхо-Ваксома у детей различного воз-раста доказано статистически значимое снижение частоты назначения антибиотиков, уменьшение тяжести течения и длительности ОРИ [9]. У детей, посещающих детские учреждения, отмечено снижение частоты ОРИ, обострений рецидивирующего бронхита [15].…”
