Current data on intestinal dysbiosis, its clinical manifestations, the role of the intestinal microbiota in the life of the organism are presented in the article. The characteristic of proand prebiotics, symbiotic have been given. The methods of diagnosis of intestinal dysbiosis have been presented, their informativeness has been assessed. The author presents results of his own research of the effectiveness of the symbiotic drug with infants (n = 24) having intestinal dysbiosis. It has been found that the use of a symbiotic led to normalization of stool biochemical parameters, as well as to the decrease of growth of conditionally pathogenic intestinal biota.
