HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Digestive Probiotic Ultra Strength by MegaFood
Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.
What’s inside
Low disclosure
This product contains 12 active ingredients: live probiotic bacteria strains bundled into what MegaFood calls their Probiotic Blend. The checked strains include two forms of Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus gasseri, and Bifidobacterium bifidum — all meant to support digestive and gut health.
Several other Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium strains round out the formula, though we hold limited data on some of them. The capsule also contains inactive ingredients (microcrystalline cellulose, hypromellose, magnesium stearate, and silicon dioxide) that serve as binders and fillers.
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
The evidence for these strains is mixed. Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium bifidum are each rated possibly effective for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
L. acidophilus is also possibly effective for Helicobacter pylori infection, antibiotic-associated diarrhea, and bacterial vaginosis. B. bifidum adds possibly effective evidence for respiratory tract infections.
Beyond those uses, the evidence either isn't yet established in our data or points toward ineffectiveness — for instance, L. acidophilus is rated possibly ineffective for atopic disease. For many other conditions, we don't have reliable evidence to rate the strains one way or the other.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Lactobacillus acidophilus is generally well tolerated in healthy adults and children, though you should check with your doctor before use. Lactobacillus gasseri and Bifidobacterium bifidum have more limited safety data and also warrant a conversation with your doctor first.
Because these products contain live microorganisms, there's a small theoretical risk that they could cause infection in certain patients — cases of bacteremia, sepsis, and other serious infections have been reported, though most occurred in people with weakened immune systems or translocation from elsewhere in the body. Gastrointestinal side effects like bloating, gas, abdominal discomfort, and diarrhea are uncommon but possible when taking probiotics.
A small number of trial participants experienced rash and itching, but it's unclear whether the probiotics themselves were responsible.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Antibiotic drugs are the main concern — they may reduce how well this probiotic works, and the antibiotics may kill the live bacteria in the supplement. If you take any antibiotic, separate it from this product by a few hours and mention it to your pharmacist.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
If you have IBS, antibiotic-associated diarrhea, or certain bacterial infections, one of these L. acidophilus strains may help. If you take antibiotics, space them at least a few hours apart from this supplement.
Those with weakened immunity should talk to their doctor first. Check your exact medications with the tool on this page before you start.

Digestive Probiotic Ultra Strength by MegaFood Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
MegaFood's Digestive Probiotic Ultra Strength contains several live bacterial strains, and a few of them do interact with medications.
The most serious concern is with antibiotic drugs. Three of the product's checked ingredients — Lactobacillus acidophilus (in two forms), Lactobacillus gasseri, and Bifidobacterium bifidum — may have their effectiveness reduced if you take them at the same time as antibiotics, because the antibiotics can kill off the live organisms in the supplement.
This is a Moderate-severity interaction. The fix is straightforward: space out your antibiotic and probiotic doses by a few hours.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Altogether, these interactions span 182 individual medications.
We couldn't check several other ingredients in this blend: Bifidobacterium lactis HN019, Lactobacillus casei LC-11, Bifidobacterium lactis Bl-04, Lactobacillus plantarum LP-115, Lactobacillus paracasei Lpc-37, Bifidobacterium lactis Bi-07, and Lactobacillus rhamnosus HN001. That doesn't mean they don't interact — we simply have no data on file for them.
