HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Ultimate Flora Probiotic Advanced Immunity 10 Billion by Renew Life

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

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Jul 11, 2026

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 4 active ingredients.
  • “Advanced Immunity Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (1,350 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

This product contains four active ingredients. Saccharomyces boulardii is a beneficial yeast strain used to support digestive health and immunity.

Larch arabinogalactan is a fiber extracted from larch wood that acts as a prebiotic — food for your good bacteria. Saccharomyces cerevisiae fermentate is a fermented yeast ingredient, and the Advanced Immunity Blend rounds out the formula with additional probiotic cultures.

The capsule itself is made from vegetable material.

Does it work?

Moderate evidence
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
Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports this product's ingredients for its stated purpose, but it isn't conclusive.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Probiotic supplement for digestive and immune health.
  • We looked for evidence on: Antibiotic-associated diarrhea, Travelers' diarrhea, Clostridioides difficile infection, Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), Crohn disease, Ulcerative colitis — and 4 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Saccharomyces Boulardii is rated "Possibly Effective" for Antibiotic-associated diarrhea (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Saccharomyces Boulardii is rated "Possibly Effective" for Travelers' diarrhea, Clostridioides difficile infection.
  • Also on file: Brewer's Yeast is rated "Possibly Effective" for Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

The evidence backing this product is mixed. Saccharomyces boulardii shows possibly effective ratings for rotaviral diarrhea, travelers' diarrhea, antibiotic-associated diarrhea, and a few other digestive conditions.

However, for larch arabinogalactan — which is included in the formula — the evidence we hold is insufficient to rate it for common cold or cholesterol management. The other ingredients' effectiveness data isn't established in our records.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Brewer's Yeast Saccharomyces Boulardii Larch Arabinogalactan

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 3 of the 3 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 3 of 3.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 3 of 3.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Saccharomyces boulardii is generally well tolerated by healthy adults, but the facts caution against use if you're critically ill or immunocompromised due to a rare risk of yeast infection entering the bloodstream. Larch arabinogalactan is well tolerated as a fiber, though some people experience bloating or flatulence.

Both ingredients come with limited long-term safety data, so talk with your doctor before starting, especially if you have ongoing health concerns. The facts note that pregnancy and lactation information is not included in the data we hold — speak with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized guidance.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Brewer's Yeast Saccharomyces Boulardii Larch Arabinogalactan

Meds to double-check

Major interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Major identified

At least one ingredient has a documented Major-severity interaction. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 3 of the 3 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Saccharomyces Boulardii, Brewer's Yeast, Larch Arabinogalactan.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Major.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: immunosuppressants / transplant drugs; diabetes medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 256 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.

If you take immunosuppressant drugs (to prevent organ rejection or for autoimmune conditions), larch arabinogalactan in this product may reduce their effectiveness — a Moderate concern. If you're on antifungal medications, Saccharomyces boulardii may not work as intended because antifungals can kill the live yeast.

Check your exact medications before starting.

Check your own medication Run your meds through the checker above

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Major medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This probiotic may help if you're looking to support digestive health or recover from antibiotic-associated diarrhea, but it's not the right choice if you take immunosuppressant medications or antifungals. If you're critically ill, immunocompromised, or pregnant, check with your doctor first.

Always run your medications through the tool on this page.

Ultimate Flora Probiotic Advanced Immunity 10 Billion by Renew Life: Common Questions

Does Ultimate Flora Probiotic Advanced Immunity 10 Billion by Renew Life interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Ultimate Flora Probiotic Advanced Immunity 10 Billion has a known interaction with 256 medications, including 9 rated major. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Ultimate Flora Probiotic Advanced Immunity 10 Billion contains 4 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Will this probiotic help with antibiotic-associated diarrhea?
Saccharomyces boulardii, one of the active ingredients, is rated possibly effective for antibiotic-associated diarrhea. That said, if you're currently taking antifungal medications, the probiotic won't work well because antifungals kill yeast. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about timing.
Can I take this if I'm immunocompromised?
The safety facts advise against this ingredient for people who are critically ill or immunocompromised due to a rare risk of yeast infection entering the bloodstream. If this applies to you, check with your doctor before using it.
What are the side effects?
Saccharomyces boulardii rarely causes abdominal cramps, flatulence, nausea, vomiting, or decreased appetite. Larch arabinogalactan can cause bloating and flatulence in some people. Most people tolerate it well.
Is there safety information for pregnancy and breastfeeding?
The safety data we hold doesn't include pregnancy and breastfeeding information for these ingredients. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether this product is right for you during pregnancy or while nursing.
How many probiotic strains are in this?
The product contains four active ingredients, including Saccharomyces boulardii and Saccharomyces cerevisiae fermentate, plus an Advanced Immunity Blend and Total Probiotic Cultures. The exact number of individual bacterial or yeast strains isn't specified in the product facts.
Will this help with high cholesterol?
Larch arabinogalactan, which is in this formula, has insufficient reliable evidence to rate it for cholesterol management in our data. If cholesterol support is your main goal, you may want to discuss other options with your pharmacist.
