Saccharomyces boulardii

- Reduces the risk of antibiotic-associated diarrhea
- Balances the intestinal flora
- Each capsule contains 5 billion bacteria stems from Saccharomyces boulardii
Saccharomyces boulardii is a non-pathogenic probiotic yeast that protects against antibiotic-associated diarrhea caused by a disruption in the balance of intestinal flora. It is resistant to local stresses, including digestive enzymes, bile salts, organic acids as well as temperature and pH variations. As Saccharomyces boulardii is also naturally resistant to antibiotics, it can be taken by people who take antibiotics to support the digestive tract by maintaining the balance of intestinal flora. Randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trials, all conducted in hundreds of adults using antibiotics, have demonstrated a significant preventative effect on cases of diarrhea. Additionally, Saccharomyces boulardii is the only probiotic that has demonstrated significant effectiveness in reducing cases of recurrent diarrhea associated with C. difficile, which is responsible for approximately 10-20% of cases of antibiotic-associated diarrhea. Each Saccharomyces boulardii capsule contains 5 billion colony forming units (CFU).
