Omniflora 30 Capsules

Lactobacillus gasseri colonizes the human small intestine.
This creates acidic conditions so that the growth of pathogenic microorganisms is inhibited.

Bifidobacterium longum is found in the small intestine and large intestine.
Above all, it breaks down carbohydrates into acetic acid and lactic acid and counteracts gas-forming bacteria.

Omniflora is applied

• as a supportive treatment for diseases of the small or large intestine that are associated with diarrhea, flatulence or constipation.
• to support the reconstruction of the intestinal flora (e.g. after antibiotic treatment).

If you do not feel better or if you feel worse after 7 to 10 days, contact your doctor.

Contraindications

Omniflora must not be taken

• if you are allergic to Lactobacillus gasseri or Bifidobacterium longum culture lyophilisate or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).
• with suppression of the immune system.
• if there is blood in the stool.
• by children under 6 years of age.
• of patients with a weakened immune system (e.g. HIV infection, organ transplantation, leukemia, malignant tumors, radiation, chemotherapy, long-term high-dose cortisone treatment) because of the hitherto unassessable risk of general colonization with the active ingredients Lactobacillus gasseri and Bifidobacterium longum.
