Brief Summary:
SSc-associated gastrointestinal (GI) involvement is common, with no effective treatment. Probiotics may have beneficial effects on symptoms as supported by one small open-label study (n=10) that demonstrated decreased bloating symptoms in SSc patients after 2 months of probiotics. This study aims to determine (i) whether 60 days of Vivomixx probiotics result in greater GI symptom improvement than placebo in SSc outpatients, assessed using an interview-administered 34-item Gastrointestinal Tract (GIT) questionnaire and (ii) whether 60 days versus 120 days of probiotics result in greater GI symptom improvement in SSc outpatients, assessed using the GIT questionnaire.
