The patients of the main group (n = 29) along with the standard therapy (the volume of the enteral nutrition of 5 ml or more) were treated orally with liquid probiotic based on E. faecium L3 in a dose of 0.5 ml (5 x 10(8) CFU) 3 times a day for 14 days.

Subinhibitory concentrations of antibiotics may cause a number of phenotypic and genotypic changes in microorganisms.
