How Florastor Probiotic Supports Gut Health?
The Power of Saccharomyces boulardii
Florastor Probiotic utilizes the unique probiotic yeast strain, Saccharomyces boulardii CNCM I-745. Unlike many other probiotics, this strain is naturally resistant to antibiotics, making it an ideal choice for those taking antibiotics or seeking to maintain a healthy gut flora during and after antibiotic treatment. This specific strain is clinically proven and is supported by the Canadian Digestive Health Foundation.
Benefits for Digestive Health
Florastor helps to support overall digestive health. It works to:
- Promote a balanced gut flora
- Support a healthy immune system
- Alleviate and prevent antibiotic-associated diarrhea
- Reduce the risk of traveler’s diarrhea
Key Features and Advantages
Antibiotic Resistance
One of the main advantages of Florastor is its resistance to antibiotics. It can be taken concurrently with antibiotics, as it survives and continues to support gut health when other probiotics are killed off. This is a significant advantage, as antibiotic use often disrupts the natural balance of gut bacteria.
Vegetarian & Non-GMO Formula
Florastor Probiotic is suitable for vegetarians and is made with a non-GMO formula. These capsules are designed to be gentle on the stomach and easy to incorporate into a daily routine. The vegetarian capsules make it accessible to a wider audience. The non-GMO formula ensures that the product is free from genetically modified organisms, aligning with consumer preferences for natural and clean products. Florastor also undergoes rigorous quality control measures to ensure the highest standards of purity and potency.
How to Use Florastor Probiotic
Dosage Instructions
The recommended dosage for adults and children (from 1 year of age) is one capsule, one to two times a day, or as directed by a healthcare professional.
- Swallow the capsule whole with water.
- Florastor can be taken with or without food.
- For individuals who have difficulty swallowing capsules, the contents can be mixed with food.
- When taking with antibiotics, it is recommended to take Florastor at a different time of day than the antibiotic, for example, several hours apart, to maximize its effectiveness.
When to Take Florastor
Florastor can be taken daily for general digestive health and immune support, or as needed during antibiotic treatment. It can also be taken preventatively when traveling to new locations, to combat traveler’s diarrhea. If you are traveling and are concerned about traveler's diarrhea, starting Florastor a few days before your trip can be beneficial. Always consult with a healthcare professional if you are unsure about usage.
Safety Information
Potential Side Effects and Precautions

If you experience any allergic reactions such as rash, itching, or swelling, discontinue use immediately and seek medical attention. Do not use if you have a central venous catheter, are immunocompromised, or are severely ill. Keep out of reach of children.
