BioGaia Protectis Kids Strawberry, 30 chewable tablets

$39.00

A daily probiotic is easier to keep up when it's a single chewable tablet. BioGaia Protectis Kids Strawberry is a strawberry chewable for children aged 3 and over. Each tablet contains a minimum of 100 million live Limosilactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938 (Protectis). It's intended to support a healthy digestive system and beneficial gut and bowel flora. The tablet is sweetened with isomalt and xylitol and can be taken at any time of day, with or without food. If you're not sure where to begin, our gut health for children page is a good starting point.
Benefits
  • Named strain at a stated dose: A minimum of 100 million live L. reuteri DSM 17938 in each tablet.
  • Chewable format: No powders or drops to measure, just one tablet.
  • Flexible timing: Take at any time of day, with or without food.
  • Intended to support: A healthy digestive system and beneficial gut and bowel flora.
  • Simple ingredient list: Isomalt, xylitol, strawberry flavouring and citric acid alongside the probiotic.

We stock this because it keeps the formulation short. There's one named probiotic strain, a stated minimum dose and a short list of excipients. Many children find the chewable tablet easier than a sachet or drops, so it fits into school mornings without negotiation.

FAQ
What age is the strawberry chewable for?

The label says it's suitable from 3 years of age, one tablet daily. For younger children, BioGaia makes a drop format. Check the age on the pack and ask your health professional if you're unsure which suits your child.

Does this one contain vitamin D?

No. This strawberry version contains the probiotic only. A separate orange-flavoured BioGaia chewable adds 10 mcg of vitamin D per tablet. Check the pack to confirm what is in the product you receive. Ask your health professional if you're unsure which suits your child.

Why does the label warn about laxative effects?

The tablet is sweetened with isomalt and xylitol. The label says taking more than the recommended dose may have a laxative effect from these sweeteners. Give one tablet daily and speak with your health professional if you have concerns. Always read the label.

How long will 30 tablets last?

At the label dose of one tablet daily, a pack of 30 covers 30 days. Use the tablets within 3 months of opening and keep the container closed, stored below 25°C in a cool, dry place. Keep out of reach of children.
