Will you be adding the packaging with 5 billion bacteria from Probactiol to your range soon? (56 pieces) My daughter is currently using them and has benefited from it. Therefore, switching to 10 billion doesn't seem necessary. I get them elsewhere, and it would be convenient if I could also order them through you :-)
On 21 august 2019 by Customer serviceFor purely technical reasons (related to the programming of the website), we are unable to indicate this just yet. My colleague estimates that it will likely be towards the end of the year. We apologise for the inconvenience.
What is the reason that this product can only be given to children from the age of 3? I have read that for children it is good to provide at least 5 billion colony-forming units. The only probiotics for children that I find that meet this requirement is this one. But my son is 20 months old. Is it better not to do it? Or do children under 3 years also need fewer billion units?
On 04 november 2025 by Customer serviceProbactiol Junior is suitable from the time of weaning. If an age of 3 years is stated on the packaging, this is a legally required statement that has nothing to do with the composition but with the form of administration (capsule). If the child is still too young to swallow a capsule, you can open the capsule and mix the powder with some water.
I see that our site stated "from 3 to 12 years". This is incorrect (I cannot find it on the manufacturer's website). The product is suitable for children from around 1 year, provided that for the very youngest, the capsule is first opened.
For the Probactiol Junior Chewable, there is indeed a minimum age of 3 years because the chewable tablets contain a sweetener (xylitol).
Regarding the number of billion bacteria, this is more related to the severity of the situation than to age. For general maintenance, for example, 1 billion is sufficient, but if the child is recovering from an antibiotic course or needs a strong approach for other reasons (for example, preventively during a trip), you can safely give several weeks of 5 to 30 billion bacteria per day.
On 20 april 2017 by Customer serviceTherefore, it is advisable to give the Probactiol approximately an hour later, or perhaps later in the day. The exact timing is not crucial, and the stomach does not necessarily need to be empty.
On 01 december 2015 by Customer serviceFor infants who are not yet receiving supplementary feeding, a slightly different probiotic is usually recommended, one that does not include L. acidophilus (as that strain can be a bit too acidic for sensitive little tummies). For example, the Microbiol child 0-4 years (liquid) or the Orthiflor Start (powder).
