HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Herbal Flora Plus by Mountain Meadow Herbs
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
Herbal Flora Plus contains 9 ingredients total: a mix of beneficial bacteria (probiotics) and one prebiotic blend. The probiotics we could review are Bifidobacterium bifidum, Lactobacillus acidophilus, and Bacillus subtilis, plus several others we couldn't fully check—L. rhamnosus, L. plantarum, L. casei, B. licheniformis, and L. lactis.
There's also a Symbiotic Proprietary Blend meant to feed and support these organisms. The rest of the product is made up of inactive ingredients like humic acid, fulvic acid, bilberry, ginger, milk thistle, cilantro, bee pollen, chicory, burdock, and the capsule material (hypromellose).
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
The probiotics in this blend have been studied for several conditions. Bifidobacterium bifidum and Lactobacillus acidophilus are both possibly effective for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
L. acidophilus is also possibly effective for Helicobacter pylori infection, antibiotic-associated diarrhea, and bacterial vaginosis. Bacillus subtilis is possibly effective for antibiotic-associated diarrhea.
For other uses listed in the research—like hay fever, anxiety, Alzheimer's disease, athletic performance, constipation, and eczema—the evidence we hold isn't established enough to rate them. Talk with your doctor about whether this product fits your specific needs.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
The probiotics in this blend are generally well tolerated in healthy people. Some users report mild bloating and flatulence when starting probiotics, though that hasn't been specifically linked to Bifidobacterium bifidum on its own.
One rare case of vomiting and fever was reported in a child taking B. bifidum with L. acidophilus, but it's unclear if the probiotics caused it. There are rare case reports of serious infections (sepsis, meningitis, bacteremia) linked to probiotics in critically ill or severely immunocompromised patients—but these are uncommon, and most seem unrelated to the strains in this product.
If you have a weakened immune system, check with your doctor before starting. Pregnancy and lactation data aren't on file for the individual ingredients here, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice if you're pregnant or nursing.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
The main medication type to double-check is antibiotics. If you take them at the same time as this product, the antibiotics can kill the live organisms and make the supplement less effective.
Space them out by several hours, or ask your pharmacist for the best timing for your specific antibiotic.
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.
Herbal Flora Plus is best for people looking to support gut health or manage IBS with a multi-strain probiotic. If you take antibiotics, you'll need to time this supplement several hours apart to keep it effective.
Anyone with a severely weakened immune system should ask their doctor first. Before you start, check your exact medications against the tool on this page—especially if you're on antibiotics or immunosuppressant drugs.

Herbal Flora Plus by Mountain Meadow Herbs Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Herbal Flora Plus by Mountain Meadow Herbs is a probiotic blend, and the ingredients we could check do interact with one drug type: antibiotics.
Three of the probiotics in here—Bifidobacterium bifidum, Lactobacillus acidophilus, and Bacillus subtilis—can be harmed by antibiotics taken at the same time. Because these are live organisms, antibiotics may kill them and reduce the supplement's effectiveness.
The way around this is simple: space them out. Take your antibiotic at one time of day and this supplement several hours apart, or ask your pharmacist for specific timing.
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—L. rhamnosus, L. plantarum, L. casei, B. licheniformis, L. lactis, and the Soil Based Organisms group—because we don't hold interaction data for them. That doesn't mean they're risk-free; it means we just don't have the monographs.

For each ingredient in Herbal Flora Plus with known interactions, here are the types of medications they can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.
Bifidobacterium bifidum
Antibiotic Drugs
Theoretically, taking Bifidobacterium. bifidum with antibiotic drugs might decrease the effectiveness of B. bifidum.
Since B. bifidum preparations usually contain live and active organisms, simultaneously taking antibiotics might kill a significant number of the organisms. Tell patients to separate administration of antibiotics and B. bifidum preparations by at least 2 hours.
L. acidophilus
Antibiotic Drugs
Theoretically, taking Lactobacillus acidophilus with antibiotic drugs might decrease the effectiveness of L. acidophilus.
L. acidophilus preparations usually contain live and active organisms. Therefore, simultaneously taking antibiotics might kill a significant number of the organisms. Tell patients to separate administration of antibiotics and L. acidophilus preparations by at least two hours.
B. subtilis
Antibiotic Drugs
Theoretically, taking Bacillus subtilis with antibiotic drugs might decrease the effectiveness of B. subtilis.
Since B. subtilis preparations usually contain live and active organisms, simultaneously taking antibiotics might kill a significant number of the organisms. Tell patients to separate administration of antibiotics and B. subtilis preparations by at least 2 hours.
