Effects of paraprobiotic MIMLh5 in the treatment of chronic rhinopharyngitis
BACKGROUND: The treatment of recurrent rhinopharyngitis is mostly symptomatic and based on non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Mi-HA is a new product based on the dairy strain Lactobacillus helveticus MIMLh5, an inactivated food grade bacterium isolated from Grana Padano cheese, which has immunomodulatory properties and prevents bacterial adhesion to epithelial cells. We retrospectively investigated the effectiveness of Mi-HA to treat recurring rhinopharyngitis.
