How Bifilac Capsule works

Probiotics in Bifilac add beneficial live bacteria to the gut, which helps restore microbial balance, improve digestion, and reduce harmful bacteria. This strengthens the gut lining and can lower the frequency and length of diarrhea.

Bifilac Capsule dosage

Swallow the capsule whole with water; do not crush or chew it. It is usually taken once or twice daily, with or without food, or preferably with a meal depending on the product. If you are also taking antibiotics, leave a gap of at least 2 hours between the antibiotic and this capsule. Take it exactly as your doctor or the label directs; do not change the dose or stop early on your own. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, but skip it if it is almost time for your next dose - do not double up.

Warnings and precautions

• Bifilac is generally considered safe in pregnancy but should still be used only after checking with a doctor. Breastfeeding women should consult their healthcare provider before using Bifilac. People with severe kidney disease or serious illness should consult a doctor before use. Alcohol may worsen bloating and disturb gut flora, which can reduce how well Bifilac works, so it's best to limit alcohol. Bifilac does not usually affect alertness or the ability to drive.
• Use caution if you have a weakened immune system, are critically ill, have a central venous catheter, or have severe pancreatitis, because of a rare risk of bloodstream infection.
