Trust & Pharmacist Advice
Antibiotics are important medicines used to treat appropriate bacterial infections, but they can also alter populations of bacteria normally present in the gastrointestinal tract.
From a pharmacy perspective:
- Take antibiotics exactly as prescribed and complete the prescribed course unless your prescriber advises otherwise.
- Do not use a probiotic as a substitute for prescribed antibiotic treatment.
- Biome Advanced provides six identified bacterial strains rather than an unspecified probiotic blend.
- The manufacturer's directions recommend starting Biome Advanced from the first day of an antibiotic course and continuing for at least two weeks after finishing it.
- If taking a probiotic alongside an antibiotic, ask your pharmacist whether the doses should be separated.
- Seek medical advice if you develop significant or persistent diarrhoea during or following antibiotic treatment.
- People who are significantly immunocompromised, seriously unwell or receiving specialist medical treatment should obtain professional advice before taking live bacterial supplements.
- Pregnant or breastfeeding women should seek healthcare professional advice before use.
Not Suitable For
- Children under 12 unless recommended by an appropriate healthcare professional
- Anyone with a known allergy or sensitivity to an ingredient
- Anyone advised by a healthcare professional to avoid live bacterial supplements
Seek professional advice before use if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, immunocompromised, seriously unwell or under medical supervision.
How to Use

FAQs
1. What is Activated Probiotics Biome Advanced?

The manufacturer particularly recommends the product for use during and following courses of antibiotics. It comes in a convenient once-daily capsule and is shelf-stable, so refrigeration is not required.
2. How many live bacteria are in each Biome Advanced capsule?
Each capsule provides a total of 30 billion live bacteria. These are divided between six specifically identified strains, with Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis BS01 providing the largest individual amount at 10 billion, followed by Lactobacillus plantarum 6595 at 9 billion.
3. How many probiotic strains does Biome Advanced contain?
Biome Advanced contains six identified strains: Lactobacillus plantarum 6595, Lactobacillus plantarum HEAL9, Lactobacillus paracasei 8700:2, Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG, Lactobacillus acidophilus LA02 and Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis BS01.
4. Can I take Biome Advanced while taking antibiotics?
The manufacturer's directions specifically recommend Biome Advanced for daily use during antibiotic treatment, beginning on the first day of the antibiotic course. Because antibiotics differ in how they are taken, ask your pharmacist whether your probiotic and antibiotic doses should be separated and always follow the instructions for your prescribed medicine.
5. How long should I take Biome Advanced after antibiotics?
The manufacturer's directions recommend continuing one capsule daily for at least two weeks after completing the antibiotic course. Do not stop or alter prescribed antibiotic treatment because you are taking a probiotic. If you experience persistent gastrointestinal symptoms following antibiotics, speak to your GP or pharmacist.
6. How do I take Biome Advanced?
Adults and children over 12 years should take one capsule daily, unless otherwise directed by a healthcare practitioner. It can be taken either with or without food. Follow the instructions supplied with your pack and do not exceed the recommended daily intake.
7. Does Biome Advanced need refrigeration?
No. Biome Advanced is described as shelf-stable and refrigeration is not required. This makes it convenient for everyday use and travel. Store it according to the conditions stated on the packaging and avoid exposure to excessive heat or moisture.
8. Is Activated Probiotics Biome Advanced vegan?
Yes. Available product information states that Biome Advanced is suitable for vegetarians and vegans and has no added animal derivatives. It is also listed as having no added dairy, lactose, egg, fish or shellfish. Anyone with a significant allergy should still check the current packaging before use.
9. Is Biome Advanced gluten-free?
The available product information lists Biome Advanced as having no added wheat or gluten. It is also listed as having no added dairy, lactose, fructose, yeast, nuts, seeds, peanut, soy, egg, fish or shellfish. Always check the current label when purchasing for someone with an allergy or medically diagnosed food intolerance.
10. Can children take Biome Advanced?
The manufacturer's directions specify use for adults and children over 12 years at one capsule daily. For a child under 12, choose an age-appropriate product or ask your pharmacist or healthcare professional for advice rather than using the adult formulation without guidance.
11. What is the difference between Biome Advanced and a standard daily probiotic?
Biome Advanced is a relatively high-strength formulation, providing 30 billion live bacteria from six identified strains per capsule. It is also specifically positioned for use during and after antibiotics. A general daily probiotic may contain different strains, a different live bacteria count and have different manufacturer directions, so products should not be compared solely on the total bacterial count.
12. Can I take Biome Advanced every day?
The product is formulated for once-daily use in adults and children over 12. Follow the manufacturer's directions and seek professional advice if you are immunocompromised, seriously unwell, pregnant, breastfeeding or receiving specialist medical treatment. If gastrointestinal symptoms are persistent, worsening or unexplained, speak to your GP or pharmacist rather than relying on ongoing supplementation alone.
