Linex, sachet for children 1.5 g, 10 pcs.

It is recommended as a food supplement – a source of probiotic microorganisms.

The probiotic Linex for children® contains Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis (BB-12) which is important for children.

Why Bifidobacteria BB-12?

Bifidobacterium BB-12 is found in breast milk and begins to populate the intestines of the newborn from the first hours of life. This strain has high safety, good tolerability and clinical efficacy in children from the newborn period.

Bifidobacteria contribute to the natural formation of normal microflora and intestinal function and create an optimal environment in the intestine for the action of digestive enzymes.

Bifidobacteria also contribute to the proper formation of immunity and help reduce the risk of infectious diseases, the possibility of atopic dermatitis and food allergies in young children.

In breastfed children it is bifidobacteria that constitute 60-91% of the microflora.

Indications

Dysbacteriosis, flatulence, Colitis, Diarrhea, After a course of antibiotics

• Restablishing and maintaining the balance of composition and functional state of intestinal microflora, including children in the first year of life with digestive disorders as colic disorder*, gas, stool disorders (constipation, diarrhea) and other digestive disorders
• Maintaining the balance of intestinal microflora composition and functional status after antibiotic treatment
• Maintaining the balance of the composition and functional state of the intestinal microflora while taking antibiotics and after antibiotic therapy
• Limiting the risk of diarrhea caused by viral or bacterial infections of the gastrointestinal tract (including rotavirus)
• Supporting the formation and functioning of the immune system.

Factors that have a negative impact on the formation of the intestinal microflora in the newborn:

Children at risk of imbalanced intestinal microflora:

• Cesarean section, preterm birth;
• Unfavorable course of neonatal period;
• Late breastfeeding;
• Early artificial feeding;
• Physiological immaturity of bowel motor function;
• Unbalanced diet.

Unfavorable moments in the life of the child (risk of imbalance of the intestinal microflora):

• Cessation of breastfeeding;
• Inset of complementary feeding;
• Tooth teething;
• Hospitalization;
• Residence change;
• Separation, even for a short time, from the mother when she goes to work;
• Needing from the breast, from the pacifier.

These factors disrupt the natural colonization of the intestine with beneficial bacteria and may cause imbalance of the microflora (dysbacteriosis), and therefore children from the risk group for imbalance of the microflora are more prone to functional disorders of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT), food allergies, and are more susceptible to GIT infections.
