This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing whether a multispecies probiotics supplement — a mixture of eight types of beneficial bacteria — can help reduce autism symptoms in children. About 110 children with autism will receive either the probiotic mixture or a placebo (a dummy pill with no active ingredient) for 12 weeks. Researchers will measure changes in autism symptoms, sleep, stress levels, and digestive health to see if this treatment makes a difference.
Some research suggests that gut bacteria may be connected to autism symptoms, but it's not yet clear whether taking probiotics can actually help. This study aims to find out whether this medication can improve core autism symptoms and other areas of life affected by autism, like sleep and family stress.

If you join this study, you'll be randomly assigned to receive either the probiotic supplement or a placebo pill — neither you nor the research team will know which one at first. You'll take your assigned supplement once daily for 12 weeks. You'll complete questionnaires about autism symptoms, sleep, stress, and digestive health at the start and again after 12 weeks. The study will also measure a substance in your urine related to gut bacteria.
