Historical information

Respiratory tract infections are among the most common diseases both in adults and children. ………….Lantigen B is an oral product based on bacterial lysates of six different inactivated strains commonly involved in respiratory tract infections. ……….This study demonstrates Lantigen B's effectiveness in the prevention of bacterial complications and suggests that it can be used in patients who are particularly at risk of infection (children, the elderly, diabetics, and immunocompromised patients) or those in whom an infection might aggravate a clinical picture that is already inherently complicated (diabetics again, but also patients with heart, kidney, or liver disease).
