HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Probiotic Ultra with 40 Billion CFU'S by NutriSuppz
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
Probiotic Ultra contains six active ingredients: two named Lactobacillus strains (acidophilus LA-14 and paracasei LPC-37), two Bifidobacterium strains, Lactobacillus plantarum, Fructooligosaccharides (a prebiotic fiber that feeds good bacteria), and Marine Polysaccharides. Together they're designed to deliver 40 billion colony-forming units (CFUs) — the active live organisms — per dose.
The remaining ingredients are inactive fillers: cellulose, rice maltodextrin, and L-leucine.
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
The evidence we hold is limited and mixed. Lactobacillus acidophilus (one of the active strains here) is rated Possibly Effective for irritable bowel syndrome, antibiotic-associated diarrhea, Helicobacter pylori, and bacterial vaginosis.
For Fructooligosaccharides, the data we have shows Insufficient Reliable Evidence to rate its use for constipation, diabetes, bone health, high cholesterol, or traveler's diarrhea — meaning the research isn't solid enough yet to say whether it works for those purposes. We don't have effectiveness data on file for the other probiotic strains in this product.
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. Fructooligosaccharides can cause gas, bloating, abdominal pain, and flatulence — these are usually mild at doses under 10 grams per day, and clinical trials suggest they don't occur more often than placebo at typical dosing.
When you take Lactobacillus acidophilus with other probiotics, uncommon gastrointestinal side effects like stomach discomfort, bloating, or diarrhea may occur. Because live probiotic bacteria can, in rare cases, cause serious infection in people with compromised immune systems, check with your doctor before starting if you have any concerns about your immune health.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
If you take antibiotic drugs, check with your pharmacist or doctor before adding this product — taking them at the same time may reduce how well the probiotic works. We could not check three of the other active ingredients for interactions, so run your exact medications through the search tool on this page to be sure.
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.
This product may help if you have irritable bowel syndrome, antibiotic-associated diarrhea, or certain bacterial infections — Lactobacillus acidophilus has some evidence for those. If you're taking antibiotics, separate them from this probiotic by a few hours so the antibiotic doesn't kill off the beneficial bacteria.
Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting, especially if you're on any regular medications or have immune system concerns.

Probiotic Ultra with 40 Billion CFU'S by NutriSuppz Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Probiotic Ultra with 40 Billion CFU's by NutriSuppz has one documented interaction, through its Lactobacillus acidophilus LA-14 content.
Taking it at the same time as antibiotic drugs (Moderate severity) may reduce how well the probiotic works — antibiotics can kill off the live bacteria in the product before your gut can benefit from them.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Additionally, we could not check three of the six active ingredients — Bifidobacterium animalis lactis BL-04, Lactobacillus plantarum LP-115, and Lactobacillus paracasei LPC-37 — because we hold no interaction data for them. Fructooligosaccharides (a prebiotic fiber in the blend) has no known interactions documented in our data.
Although the Lactobacillus acidophilus interaction is the only one we have documentation for, that doesn't mean no others exist with the ingredients we couldn't fully check. Use the medication search tool on this page to look up your exact prescriptions, and talk with your pharmacist or doctor before starting if you're on antibiotics or other regular medications.

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.
