How to Take It
Best taken in the morning
Live strains survive stomach acid best taken with or just before a meal — after a meal is the worst option. Consistency matters more than the clock.
On the label
Adults: Take 1 capsule daily with a meal. Take at least 2-3 hours before or after taking antibiotics. Refrigerate for maximum potency and freshness
