RECRUITINGEvaluate the effectiveness of the combination of lactitol and probiotics, administered orally to achieve intestinal decolonization of KP-OXA-48 in people.
Time frame: Six weeks
Evaluate the effectiveness of lactitol and probiotics administered orally for intestinal decolonization of KPOXA -48 in people.
In people at the time of the end of treatment (End of treatment Response) and 3 weeks after end of treatment (Short-term response).
Time frame: Three weeks and six weeks
Evaluate the safety and tolerability of the combination of lactitol and probiotics (Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium bifidum ) measured by the increase of diarrhea, flatulence, abdominal pain, loss of appetite and weight loss
