How long does OptiBac Probiotics One Week Flat 7 Sachets take to work?

OptiBac Probiotics One Week Flat 7 Sachets isn’t a medication, so how long it takes to work varies from person to person. It’s also influenced by a number of other factors like lifestyle, diet, nutrition, your unique microbiome, medical conditions and any other medication you’re taking. While other Optibac probiotics are meant to be taken for months at a time, this is a short-term probiotic course that we recommend taking for seven days to get the full benefits.

Live cultures are not recommended for those with serious medical conditions e.g. those who are severely immunosuppressed, have pancreatitis, are in the ICU, have melaena, have a central venous catheter, infants with short bowel syndrome, or to patients with open wounds following major surgery; unless under a doctor's care.
