Trust & Pharmacist Advice
IBS is a gastrointestinal disorder that can involve abdominal pain, bloating and changes in bowel habits. However, similar symptoms can occur with other conditions, so persistent symptoms should not automatically be assumed to be IBS.

- New, persistent or worsening gastrointestinal symptoms should be discussed with your GP or pharmacist.
- Seek medical advice for unexplained weight loss, rectal bleeding, persistent vomiting, fever, anaemia or a significant unexplained change in bowel habits.
- If you are immunocompromised, seriously unwell or receiving specialist medical treatment, seek professional advice before taking a live bacterial supplement.
- If taking medicines or other gastrointestinal products, your pharmacist can advise on appropriate use.

FAQs
1. What is Activated Probiotics Biome Relief used for?
Biome Relief is a targeted probiotic formulation intended for people with medically diagnosed Irritable Bowel Syndrome. According to the manufacturer, it is formulated to relieve symptoms associated with medically diagnosed IBS, relieve abdominal bloating and promote bowel regularity. If you have recurring digestive symptoms but have not been diagnosed with IBS, speak with your GP or pharmacist rather than relying on a supplement to self-diagnose the cause.
2. How many live bacteria does Biome Relief contain?
Each capsule provides a total of 23 billion live bacteria. This comprises 10 billion Lactobacillus plantarum 299v, 10 billion Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG and 3 billion Bifidobacterium breve BR03. The precise strain identification is important because evidence relating to probiotics is generally strain-specific rather than applying equally to every member of a bacterial species.
3. Which probiotic strains are in Biome Relief?
There are three strains: Lactobacillus plantarum 299v (DSM 9843), Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (ATCC 53103) and Bifidobacterium breve BR03 (DSM 16604). Together they provide 23 billion live bacteria in each daily capsule.
4. How do I take Biome Relief?
Adults and children over 12 years should take one capsule daily, unless otherwise directed by their healthcare practitioner. The manufacturer's directions state that the capsule can be taken either with or without food. Follow the instructions supplied with your particular pack and do not exceed the recommended intake.
5. Is Biome Relief specifically for IBS?
Yes. This is a targeted product rather than simply a general daily probiotic. The manufacturer specifically positions Biome Relief for managing symptoms associated with medically diagnosed IBS. Because abdominal pain, bloating, diarrhoea and constipation can have many causes, people experiencing persistent or unexplained symptoms should obtain appropriate medical advice.
6. Can Biome Relief help with bloating?
The manufacturer's stated intended use includes relief of abdominal bloating in the context of medically diagnosed IBS. Bloating alone does not establish a diagnosis of IBS, however, and persistent, severe or unexplained bloating should be discussed with a healthcare professional.
7. Does Biome Relief need to be kept in the fridge?
No. The manufacturer describes Biome Relief as shelf-stable and states that refrigeration is not required. This makes the capsules convenient for everyday use and travel. Always follow the temperature and storage instructions printed on the pack and avoid storing supplements in excessive heat or moisture.
8. Is Biome Relief vegan?
Yes. The manufacturer's current product information states that it is suitable for vegetarians and vegans and contains no added animal derivatives. The manufacturer also lists it as having no added dairy, lactose, fish, shellfish or egg. Always check your individual pack if you have a significant food allergy.
9. Can children take Biome Relief?
The manufacturer's recommended directions cover adults and children over 12 years, at one capsule daily. For younger children, do not use this adult product unless advised by an appropriate healthcare professional. Other probiotic formulations may have different age recommendations.
10. Can I take Biome Relief alongside IBS medication?
Do not stop or replace prescribed or recommended IBS treatment with a probiotic without professional advice. If you take antispasmodics, laxatives, antidiarrhoeal medicines or other gastrointestinal treatments, your pharmacist or GP can advise whether Biome Relief is appropriate alongside your existing treatment.
11. Can I take Biome Relief every day?
The manufacturer's directions specify one capsule daily for adults and children over 12. If you are using it for persistent IBS symptoms and symptoms remain troublesome despite appropriate use, discuss them with your GP, pharmacist or dietitian rather than simply increasing the dose.
12. What is the difference between Biome Relief and a general daily probiotic?
Biome Relief is specifically formulated around three identified strains and provides 23 billion live bacteria per capsule, with the manufacturer's intended use focused on medically diagnosed IBS. A general probiotic may contain different strains and be intended simply for everyday supplementation. Probiotic products should therefore be compared by their exact strains and intended use rather than CFU count alone.
