Her Florastor® Balanced Benefits for Women's Health

Do not use Florastor or other probiotics in any ICU setting and in those individuals with open arterial and venous access required (such as a Vascath, Permcath, or AV fistula).

Do not use for any individual with a central line or port or in the surroundings of any patient with a central line or port. [Central lines include short- and long-term central venous catheters (CVCs) and peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs)].

Do not use Florastor for pre- or post- organ or bone marrow transplant patients and other patients considered severely immunocompromised or critically ill.

Do not use Florastor probiotics if allergic to any components (especially yeast). Less than 1% of patients experience constipation or thirst.

Very rarely, side effects such as: allergic reaction (skin rash). Fungemia or sepsis in patients with a central venous catheter, and in hospitalized, immunocompromised patients may occur.

Clinical studies suggest daily use of L-theanine 200 mg for at least 28 days for optimal stress and anxiety relief. Safe daily use up to 400 mg/day for up to 8 weeks; safety beyond this period is not established. Periodic assessment is advised. L-theanine may interact with antihypertensives and CNS depressants, potentially enhancing effects. Monitor patients for hypotension or sedation. Safety of L-theanine and probiotics in pregnancy, lactation, and individuals under 18 is not well established. Use should be based on clinical judgment. L-theanine may cause mild adverse effects such as metallic taste or dry mouth, typically resolving upon discontinuation. L-theanine is generally non-sedating, but individual response should be assessed, especially when combined with sedatives or alcohol. Probiotics may interact with immune-suppressing drugs. Probiotics should not be used in pre-/post-organ or bone marrow transplant patients or those who are severely immunocompromised or critically ill. Do not use in acute-care settings, in patients with open arterial/venous access (e.g., Vascath, Permcath, AV fistula), or around those with central lines (CVCs, PICCs). Though rare, probiotic supplementation carries a theoretical risk in immunocompromised patients or those with serious underlying conditions. Do not use if allergic to any components. Keep out of reach of children.
