About this study

Researchers are testing whether a pill containing healthy gut bacteria can reduce the risk of heart disease and death in people living with HIV who drink heavily. The trial will examine if this treatment increases the number of good bacteria in the gut, lowers inflammation levels, and reduces the risk of heart disease and death.

Based on ClinicalTrials.gov records.
