It was found that among patients with AEI, 25.9 % had rotavirus infection, 56 % — AEI of uncertain aetiology, 8 % — salmonellosis, 0.1 % — shigellosis, 10 % — AEI with other origin. A literature search showed the effectiveness of the use of probiotics, containing different strains, for AEI treatment, which manifested with reduction of intoxication syndrome, diarrhea, fever by 2–3 days.
