HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Nanoflora by BioPharma Scientific

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.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

What’s inside

Low disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Low

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 1 active ingredient.

Nanoflora contains one active ingredient: Bacillus subtilis DE111, a probiotic bacterium meant to support gut health. The capsule itself is made from vegetable material, and rice maltodextrin is included as an inactive ingredient to help preserve and stabilize the live organisms inside.

Does it work?

Not established
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
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
Not established

The graded evidence we hold for these ingredients covers different conditions than the ones this product is marketed for, so there's no established rating for its stated use — see Bacillus Subtilis's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Urinary tract health.
  • We looked for evidence on: Urinary tract infection (UTI), Bladder health, Uropathogens.
  • The closest evidence on file: Bacillus Subtilis is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Clostridioides difficile infection (Natural Medicines).

The evidence on Bacillus subtilis is mixed. It's rated possibly effective for antibiotic-associated diarrhea—that's the one use where there's enough data to suggest a real benefit.

For athletic performance, constipation, eczema, cirrhosis, and diabetes, the evidence isn't established yet in the data we hold. If you're considering this for any of those other conditions, talk it over with your doctor.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Bacillus Subtilis

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

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 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Bacillus subtilis DE111 is generally well tolerated in healthy adults, though product quality and safety can vary between brands and strains. In clinical trials, only a handful of side effects were reported: one case of headache and rare cases of diarrhea.

There's a cautionary note in the medical literature about Bacillus subtilis var. natto (a different strain) and serious infections like bloodstream or brain infection in people who are immunocompromised—this was linked to very frequent consumption of natto (fermented soybeans). Safety data for this specific product is limited, so check with your doctor before you start, especially if you have a weakened immune system.

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Bacillus Subtilis.
  • 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.

The big one is antibiotic drugs. Because this product contains live bacteria, taking antibiotics at the same time can kill the probiotic and make it less effective—so separate them by several hours or as your doctor advises.

If you take antibiotics regularly or are about to start a course, confirm the timing with your pharmacist before you begin.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Nanoflora may help if you're dealing with antibiotic-associated diarrhea, though evidence for other uses isn't established yet. The main caution is timing it away from antibiotics—they'll interfere with each other.

If you take any antibiotics or have a weakened immune system, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before adding this to your routine.

FDA Statement of Identity

Dietary Supplement

Formula

Nanoflora contains DE111. DE111 is Deerland Enzymes' single strain of the probiotic spore, Bacillus Subtilis. DE111 controls microbial populations in the gut by crowding out the bad bacteria such as E. Coli, making room for growth of good bacteria. DE111 can bind to the epithelial cells of the intestinal lining and increase numbers; this promotes a stronger intestinal lining to protect against immune response to food molecules that may be interpreted by the body as foreign objects.

DE111 Probiotic

Suggested/Recommended/Usage/Directions

Suggested Use: Take 1 capsule per day after a meal or as directed by your healthcare practitioner.

Precautions

Consult your healthcare practitioner prior to using this product if you are pregnant, nursing, taking prescription medications or prior to any surgical procedures.

Keep out of reach of children.

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.

Can I take Nanoflora at the same time as my antibiotic?

It's a probiotic strain—a type of beneficial bacterium meant to support your gut health. This particular strain, DE111, is the active ingredient in Nanoflora.
Does Nanoflora work for diarrhea?
The evidence suggests it may help if your diarrhea was caused by antibiotics. For other types of diarrhea or other conditions, the evidence isn't established yet.
What side effects have been reported?
Side effects are rare. One trial participant reported a headache, and diarrhea has been reported rarely. Most people tolerate it well, though quality and safety can vary between brands.
Is there enough safety data on Nanoflora for pregnancy or breastfeeding?
Safety data for pregnancy and lactation isn't on file for this product. If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, talk with your doctor before taking it to see if it's right for you.
Can I take this if my immune system is weak?
Check with your doctor first. While this strain is generally well tolerated, there are rare reports of serious infections in people who are immunocompromised, so personalized medical advice matters here.
