To date, drugs are used to treat bacterial infection, but in addition to destroying pathogenic bacteria, their effect also affects beneficial microorganisms.

Infringement of an intestinal microflora occurs in recent years more often, since almost all diseases are treated with the use of antibacterial drugs.

The causes of drug dysbiosis may be inappropriate use and use of low-quality drugs, improper dosage, violation of the regimen. Also, the appearance of a violation of the intestinal microflora may be affected by prolongation of the course of administration without special need, or self-administration of antibacterial drugs. It is worth noting that different groups of medicines may have different effects on the intestinal microflora.

In some cases, there may be an imbalance in the intestinal microflora, even if the products were individually selected with the correct dosage. In any case, the restoration of the normal state of microflora can take at least a month.
