Frequently Asked Questions

What makes S.Boulardii different from other probiotics?

Most probiotics contain bacteria, but Saccharomyces boulardii is a beneficial yeast. This is clinically significant because antibiotics do not kill yeasts — meaning S.boulardii can be taken at the same time as antibiotics, unlike bacterial probiotics which should ideally be taken at least 2 hours apart from antibiotics.

Can Optibac S.Boulardii be taken with antibiotics?

Yes — unlike bacterial probiotics, S.boulardii is a yeast and is not affected by antibiotics. It can be taken concurrently. Always consult your pharmacist for personalised advice.

Is Optibac S.Boulardii available in Ireland?

Yes. Available online from Chemco Pharmacy with fast delivery throughout Ireland.
