Ingredients
- Stabilisers: maltodextrin (natural source), microcrystalline cellulose
- Live cultures: Lactobacillus reuteri RC-14®, Lactobacillus rhamnosus GR-1®
- Vegetarian capsule: hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, anti-caking agent: vegetable magnesium stearate

Suitable for vegetarians, vegans and those on a gluten-free or yeast-free diet.
Following the taxonomic updates issued by a global team of scientists and published in April 2020, which look more closely at the Lactobacillus genus, a reclassification has been advised for both the L. rhamnosus and L. reuteri species. The active ingredients for 'For women' may therefore also now be referred to as Limosilactobacillus reuteri RC-14® and Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus GR-1®.

After taking antibiotics every 3 months for a year l was desperate to look for help to try & sort out my Cystitis problem, & what a relief when l turned to Obtibac. My e-mail was answered immediately by Beverley (Therapist) who gave me really good advice . When taking antibiotics the Obtibac capsule for taking with these really helps & after the course l am now on For Women capsules to help keep everything clear in my gut etc. As it's early days of taking this course l can not say how things are going yet but l will definitely buy from Obtibac in the future as the help & service they give is 1st class. Many thanks Beverley & all the team at Optibac.

I preferred the everyday one for my gut health, this one did not really do much for me unfortunately I thought because it had good reviews it would help but it did not.
