Randomized clinical trial: the effect of probiotic Bacillus coagulans Unique IS2 vs. placebo on the symptoms management of irritable bowel syndrome in adults
Abstract The therapeutic effects of B. coagulans Unique IS2 have been well established in children with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), but its efficacy in adults remain under reported. Thus, in this study the efficacy of B. coagulans Unique IS2 in the management of IBS symptoms in adults was invest...

Patients (n = 153) fulfilling Rome III criteria were provided placebo capsules for a 2 weeks run-in period. Only patients satisfying compliance criteria (n = 136) were randomized (double blind) to receive either B. coagulans Unique IS2 (2 billion CFU) or placebo capsules daily for 8 weeks.
