Trust & Pharmacist Advice
The early years are an important period for the development of a baby's gut microbiome. Factors such as feeding choices, antibiotic exposure, illness and environmental influences can all affect this developing microbial balance.
OptiBac For Your Baby Drops contains Bifidobacterium breve M-16V®, a strain that has been scientifically researched in thousands of babies and young children. The simple liquid format makes it easy to incorporate into daily feeding routines.
While probiotic supplements are commonly used by parents as part of their child's wellness routine, they should complement a balanced diet and age-appropriate feeding practices.
