Summary

It is a randomized double blind placebo control study. One hundred severe asthmatic patients will receive "Probiotical ®/Bactecal®" each day during 3 months and will be evaluated before and 1-3-6 months after in order to assess the impact of the synbiotic on the lung function, the exhaled nitric oxide value, the inflammatory blood and sputum profiles, the bronchial reactivity, the microvascular health and the quality of life and asthma control. The hypothesis is that, as these patients are not optimally controlled, the synbiotic could have an impact by decreasing the inflammation state at local and systemic level and then improve the quality of life and the asthma control. Indeed, synbiotic have been shown to possess beneficial effects on the immune system.
