Contraindications
If a child is on antibiotics, take two hours before or two hours after the antibiotics are given and continuing long after the antibiotics are finished.
Children`s Multi Probiotic formula can prevent many childhood infections before they start, reducing the need for antibiotics.
For best results, take on a full stomach, preferably right after a meal.
All of these strains have been shown to be exceedingly safe.
An in vivo clinical study on newborn infants (0-8 weeks) with orally administered bifidobacteria and lactobacilli at a daily dosage of 9 billion, showed no side effects.
Based on the available data and considering that a person`s natural intestinal flora is composed of over 400 species of bacteria and contains over 100,000 billion microorganisms, there is no risk in taking highly concentrated probiotics.
The minimum recommended daily dose for children should be 1 billion.
If gastrointestinal symptoms are severe or do not abate, consult your health care practitioner.
Recommended Adult Dosage Children: Take 1-3 grams (1 gram = 1/2 teaspoon) daily on a full stomach or as directed by a health care practitioner. Mix into juices, protein drinks or sprinkle on cereal or fruit.
