Overview

PediLact is a multi-strain probiotic drop formulation containing a combination of *Lactobacillus reuteri*, *Lactobacillus rhamnosus*, and *Bifidobacterium infantis*. It is being evaluated as an adjunctive therapy to routine phototherapy for the treatment of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia (jaundice). The therapeutic rationale for using PediLact in this population is based on its ability to modulate the neonatal intestinal microbiota, which can reduce the enterohepatic circulation of bilirubin. Specifically, these probiotic strains are thought to increase intestinal motility and potentially inhibit the activity of the enzyme beta-glucuronidase, which deconjugates bilirubin in the gut and facilitates its reabsorption into the systemic circulation. Clinical research, including Phase 3 trials conducted by the Hormozgan University of Medical Sciences, has investigated the efficacy of PediLact in lowering total serum bilirubin levels and reducing the duration of phototherapy and hospital stays in both term and preterm neonates.
