HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Women's Probiotic by Meijer

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 Oct 1, 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 10 active ingredients.
  • “Probiotic Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (13 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

This product contains 10 active probiotic ingredients — live beneficial bacteria strains, including Bifidobacterium bifidum and Lactobacillus acidophilus, plus several other Lactobacillus species and a Bifidobacterium strain. These are meant to support gut health.

The capsule also contains inactive ingredients: cellulose, gelatin, and magnesium stearate.

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: Women's health.
  • We looked for evidence on: Vaginal health, Urinary tract health, Hormonal balance, Immune support.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Bifidobacterium Bifidum is rated "Possibly Effective" for Respiratory tract infections (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Lactobacillus Acidophilus is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Respiratory tract infections, Urinary tract infections (UTIs), Vaginal candidiasis.
  • Also on file: Bifidobacterium Bifidum is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Urinary tract infections (UTIs).

Evidence for this product's ingredients is mixed. Bifidobacterium bifidum and Lactobacillus acidophilus are both rated Possibly Effective for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

Lactobacillus acidophilus is also Possibly Effective for H. pylori infection, antibiotic-associated diarrhea, and bacterial vaginosis. For many other conditions — hay fever, anxiety, asthma, the common cold — the evidence we hold is not established.

Talk with your doctor about whether this probiotic fits your specific goals.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Lactobacillus Acidophilus Bifidobacterium Bifidum Lactobacillus Delbrueckii

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.

These probiotics are generally well tolerated in healthy people. That said, if you have a weakened immune system, are very ill, or have had serious infections, check with your doctor before starting.

Bloating and flatulence are the most commonly reported side effects with probiotics in general, though they're not confirmed specifically from Bifidobacterium bifidum alone. One case of vomiting and fever was reported in a child taking multiple probiotics together, but it's unclear whether the probiotics caused it.

Very rare cases of bacterial infection (sepsis) have been reported with some Lactobacillus strains in critically ill patients, though not specifically Bifidobacterium bifidum.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Lactobacillus Acidophilus Bifidobacterium Bifidum Lactobacillus Delbrueckii

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?
  • 3 of the 3 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Lactobacillus Acidophilus, Bifidobacterium Bifidum, Lactobacillus Delbrueckii.
  • 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.

Antibiotic drugs are the main medication type to check before starting this probiotic. Antibiotics can reduce how well the live bacteria in this product work.

Take your antibiotic and this probiotic several hours apart — your pharmacist can help you figure out a timing that works.

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 probiotic may help with IBS or certain digestive issues, especially if your doctor recommends it. The main thing to watch is separating it from any antibiotic you're taking — they don't work well together.

If you're immunocompromised or dealing with a serious illness, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting.

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.

Women's Probiotic by Meijer: Common Questions

Does Women's Probiotic by Meijer interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Women's Probiotic has a known interaction with 182 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Women's Probiotic contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism 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.
Can I take this while I'm on an antibiotic?
Not at the same time. Antibiotics can kill off the live bacteria in the probiotic, making it less effective. Space them out — your pharmacist or doctor can tell you exactly how many hours apart to take them.
Is this safe during pregnancy?
Bifidobacterium bifidum and Lactobacillus acidophilus are both rated Possibly Safe in pregnancy, but the evidence is limited. For the other strains in this blend, we don't have pregnancy safety data on file. Talk it over with your doctor before starting.
What are the most common side effects?
Bloating and flatulence are reported with probiotics generally, though they're not confirmed from every strain in this product. Gastrointestinal discomfort and abdominal pain are uncommon but possible. Most people tolerate probiotics well.
Does this really help with IBS?
Two of the main ingredients here — Bifidobacterium bifidum and Lactobacillus acidophilus — are rated Possibly Effective for IBS. That means there's some evidence, but it's not definitive. Your results may vary.
Are there any fillers in this?
Yes — the inactive ingredients are cellulose, gelatin (the capsule material), and magnesium stearate. If you have allergies or dietary restrictions, check those ingredients against your needs.
