HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Fem Dophilus 5 Billion CFU by Jarrow Formulas
Four independent checks of what is known — a summary of the available information, not a grade of the product itself.
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
The stated purpose hasn't been mapped to our evidence data yet.
Why this rating?
- We haven't mapped this product's purpose to our evidence data yet — it'll be graded on the next content refresh.
Most active ingredients don't disclose an individual amount — you can't tell how much of each you're getting.
Why this rating?
- The label discloses an exact amount for 0 of its 2 active ingredients.
- “Proprietary Probiotic Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (155 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.
The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.
Why this rating?
- 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Lacticaseibacillus Rhamnosus, Limosilactobacillus Reuteri.
- The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
- For scale: 182 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.
Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.
Why this rating?
- We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 2 of the 2 matched ingredients.
- Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 2 of 2.
- General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
- Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.
HelloPharmacist summaryFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Formula
Strains matter: GR-1/RC-14 and Vaginal Flora
Clinically effective probiotic strains Over 30 years of clinical research supports the effectiveness of the 2 patented probiotic bacterial strains in Fem-Dophilus. These beneficial strains populate the vaginal tract with healthy bacteria to balance the vaginal microbiome and help maintain a healthy vaginal and urinary tract. These two strains are the most clinically published strains for vaginal health worldwide, and were carefully selected due to their effectiveness in these studies. **As of 8/1/2022
2 clinically effective strains Maintains and balances vaginal microbiome and urinary tract health with GR-1 & RC-14 strains
(5 Billion CFU) Minimum 5 billion viable cells at time of consumption, under recommended storage conditions and within Best Used Before date.
General Statements
In one randomized clinical trial, 82% of women studied had healthy vaginal flora after 28 days of use at 1.6 billion CFU per day of a probiotic (formulated with L. rhamnosus, GR-1 and L. reuteri, RC-14) compared to 50% before supplementation. Whereas in the control group (taking 10 billion CFU of common strain, L. rhamnosus GG) there was no improvement in the percentage of women with healthy vaginal flora. 1 Reid et al. (2001). FEMS Immunol. Med. Microbiol.
GR-1 / RC-14 82% after 28 days of use at 1.6B CFU per day. Control Group 38% after 28 days of use at 10B CFU per day of a common strain.
