Lactic Acid Bacillus Tablets 60 Million spores Uses
Lactic Acid Bacillus is a probiotic used to restore and maintain a healthy balance of gut bacteria. It is commonly used for:
- Managing diarrhea, including acute diarrhea, traveler's diarrhea, and antibiotic-associated diarrhea

How Lactic Acid Bacillus Tablets work
Lactic Acid Bacillus is a live beneficial bacterium that colonizes the intestines. It works by:
- Competing with harmful bacteria for nutrients and attachment sites in the gut
- Producing lactic acid and other substances that lower the pH of the gut, inhibiting pathogen growth
- Strengthening the intestinal barrier and modulating the immune response
- Helping restore the natural gut flora after disruption by antibiotics or illness

Lactic Acid Bacillus is generally well-tolerated. Some individuals may experience mild side effects, especially at the start of use:
- Bloating or gas
- Mild abdominal discomfort
- Changes in stool consistency (e.g., looser stools)
These effects usually resolve as the body adjusts. If severe or persistent, consult your doctor.
