HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Women's Probiotics With DDS-1 by Multi Flora Probiotics

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
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 3 of its 8 active ingredients.
  • “Total Cultures” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label gives one combined amount (10,000,000,000 CFU) without saying how much of each component you get.

This formula has 8 ingredients, including three live probiotic strains: Lactobacillus acidophilus DDS-1, Lactobacillus gasseri, and Lactobacillus plantarum. You'll also find L. rhamnosus, Bifidobacterium lactis, and a proprietary probiotic blend.

The product includes organic cranberry powder (known for urinary tract support) and proanthocyanidins, a type of plant compound. The rest of the capsule is made up of inactive ingredients like rice dextrin, vegetable cellulose, magnesium stearate, and silica — common fillers and binders.

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: supports digestive and immune health.
  • We looked for evidence on: Antibiotic-associated diarrhea, Bacterial vaginosis, Clostridioides difficile infection, Common cold, Constipation, Diarrhea — and 4 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Lactobacillus Acidophilus is rated "Possibly Effective" for Antibiotic-associated diarrhea (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Lactobacillus Acidophilus is rated "Possibly Effective" for Bacterial vaginosis, Helicobacter pylori, Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
  • Also on file: Lactobacillus Acidophilus is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Constipation, Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), Radiation-induced diarrhea.

L. acidophilus DDS-1 is possibly effective for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), Helicobacter pylori infection, antibiotic-associated diarrhea, and bacterial vaginosis. For the other probiotic strains in this product, the evidence we hold does not establish effectiveness — the data is limited or absent.

Cranberry powder is possibly effective for urinary tract infections (UTIs). For most other uses listed in our data — like colds, asthma, and hay fever — there isn't enough reliable evidence to rate these ingredients yet.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Lactobacillus Acidophilus Lactobacillus Gasseri Cranberry

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.

L. acidophilus DDS-1 and L. gasseri are generally well tolerated in healthy adults and children, though some caution applies — check with your doctor before use, especially since safety data for L. gasseri is limited. Both are live organisms, so there is a small theoretical risk of infection in certain patients, though this is rare and usually occurs only when bacteria move to areas where they shouldn't be.

Mild gastrointestinal side effects — like bloating, gas, abdominal discomfort, or diarrhea — are uncommon but can happen when taking these probiotics. Cranberry powder is well tolerated orally; the most common side effects are diarrhea and mild stomach upset.

Pregnancy and lactation safety data are not on file for L. gasseri or the other probiotics checked here; talk with your doctor about whether this product is right for you if you're pregnant or breastfeeding.

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, Cranberry, Lactobacillus Gasseri.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 875 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.

Before you take this product, double-check any antibiotic drugs you're on — both L. acidophilus DDS-1 and L. gasseri can lose effectiveness if you take them at the same time. Also flag any statins (like atorvastatin), blood thinners (like warfarin), blood-pressure medications (like nifedipine), or other drugs your liver breaks down — cranberry in this formula may increase their levels.

Organic Cranberry Powder6 drug types · 712 drugs

Atorvastatin (Lipitor)

Theoretically, cranberry might increase levels and adverse effects of atorvastatin.
In one case report, a patient taking atorvastatin experienced upper back pain, rhabdomyolysis, and abnormal liver function after drinking cranberry juice 16 ounces daily for 2 weeks. Theoretically, this may have been caused by inhibition of cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) enzymes by cranberry juice, as atorvastatin is a CYP3A4 substrate. Creatinine kinase and liver enzymes normalized within 2 weeks of stopping cranberry juice. Patients taking atorvastatin should avoid large quantities of cranberry juice.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Theoretically, cranberry might increase the levels and adverse effects of CYP3A4 substrates.
A case of upper back pain, rhabdomyolysis, and abnormal liver function has been reported for a patient taking atorvastatin, a CYP3A4 substrate, in combination with cranberry juice 16 ounces daily for 2 weeks. Creatinine kinase and liver enzymes normalized within 2 weeks of stopping cranberry juice. Also, animal research suggests that cranberry juice, administered intraduodenally 30 minutes prior to nifedipine, a CYP3A4 substrate, inhibits nifedipine metabolism and increases the area under the concentration-time curve by 1.6-fold compared to control.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Nifedipine (Procardia)

Theoretically, cranberry might increase the levels and adverse effects of nifedipine.
Animal research suggests that cranberry juice, administered intraduodenally 30 minutes prior to nifedipine treatment, inhibits nifedipine metabolism and increases the area under the concentration-time curve by 1.6-fold compared to control. This interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Theoretically, cranberry might increase the levels and adverse effects of warfarin. However, research is conflicting.
There is contradictory evidence about the effect of cranberry juice on warfarin. Case reports have linked cranberry juice consumption to increases in the international normalized ratio (INR) in patients taking warfarin, resulting in severe spontaneous bleeding and excessive postoperative bleeding. Daily consumption of cranberry sauce for one week has also been linked to an increase in INR in one case report. In a small study in healthy young males, taking a high dose of 3 grams of cranberry juice concentrate capsules, equivalent to 57 grams of fruit daily, for 2 weeks produced a 30% increase in the area under the INR-time curve after a single 25-mg dose of warfarin. However, 3 very small clinical studies in patients stabilized on warfarin reported that cranberry juice 250 mL once or twice daily for 7 days (27% cranberry juice or pure cranberry juice) or 240 mL once daily for 14 days does not significantly increase INR or affect plasma warfarin levels. The reasons for these discrepant findings are unclear. It is possible that the form and dose of cranberry may play a role, as cranberry extracts and juices contain different constituents. Additionally, an in vitro study evaluating 5 different cranberry juices found varying effects, with only a cranberry concentrate, and not diluted cranberry juices, inhibiting CYP2C9. However, this concentrate did not inhibit CYP2C9 activity in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates

Theoretically, cranberry might increase the levels and adverse effects of CYP2C9 substrates. However, research is conflicting.
There is contradictory evidence about the effect of cranberry on CYP2C9 enzymes. In vitro evidence suggests that flavonoids in cranberry inhibit CYP2C9 enzymes. However, clinical research shows that cranberry juice does not significantly affect the levels, metabolism, or elimination of the CYP2C9 substrates flurbiprofen or diclofenac. Also, in patients stabilized on warfarin, drinking cranberry juice 250 mL daily for 7 days does not significantly increase the anticoagulant activity of warfarin, a CYP2C9 substrate. Additional pharmacokinetic research shows that cranberry juice does not increase peak plasma concentrations or area under the concentration-time curve of warfarin.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence B
Diclofenac (Voltaren, Others)

Theoretically, cranberry might modestly increase the levels and adverse effects of diclofenac.
In vitro evidence suggests that cranberry juice inhibits diclofenac metabolism by human liver microsomes. However, drinking cranberry juice does not seem to affect diclofenac metabolism in humans.

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.

Does Women's Probiotics With DDS-1 by Multi Flora Probiotics interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Women's Probiotics With DDS-1 has a known interaction with 874 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Women's Probiotics With DDS-1 contains 8 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 help my urinary tract infections?
Cranberry in this product is possibly effective for UTIs. However, this is a supplement — it's not a substitute for medical treatment of an active infection. If you have symptoms, see your doctor.
Can I take this while I'm on antibiotics?
You can, but you'll need to separate the doses. Both L. acidophilus DDS-1 and L. gasseri in this formula are live organisms, so antibiotics can kill them. Space them a few hours apart so the antibiotic doesn't wipe out the probiotic. Your pharmacist can help you time it.
What are the side effects?
Most people tolerate this well. Mild gastrointestinal side effects like gas, bloating, or loose stool are uncommon but can happen. A very small number of people may see a rash or skin itching. Stop and call your doctor if anything feels off.
Is this safe if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
We don't have pregnancy or lactation safety data on file for the probiotic strains in this formula. Cranberry powder is likely safe in pregnancy. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice.
Can I take this with my statin or blood thinner?
The cranberry powder in this formula may increase the levels of statins like atorvastatin and blood thinners like warfarin. Check your exact medications using the tool on this page, then talk with your pharmacist about whether you need to adjust timing or dosing.
What is 'DDS-1'?
DDS-1 is a specific strain of Lactobacillus acidophilus that has been studied for use in probiotics. It's included in this formula as one of the active probiotic cultures.
