Are these pills good if you are traveling out of the country? Will they help against Travelers diarrhea?

I don't think that I would consider them as an aid for bouts of gastrointestinal distress- think of them more as keeping a normal balance in your digestive tract.

at is a question you need to ask the product manager, or the manufacturer. As a buyer - I don't know. And it doesn't bother me - those pills are great.My B12 is now way over the top normal value, and I only used a small amount of the pills.

Well, I really don't know. But try to disolve it in natural juices full of fibers, to avoid irritating your stomach. Always take these pills with food. Always! Regards,

I can't answer that for you, don't have a clue. The only reason I ordered these was because I have digestive issues sometimes anyway...and lately have been on several antibiotics and wanted some 'fauna and flora' in my tummy...helps in digestion.

I disagree. Since taking them, I've become completely regular and stress free with bowel movements. When I stop taking them, I'm less regular and have more trouble "with the go". I started taking them when I had a yeast infection and my doctor highly recommended one pill. Best advice I could have gotten.. I havent had a yeast infection in years. But at least with me, they help with "the go" process for sure. Its possible it may not assist in this area with everyone, but different things affect different people in different ways. There is NO wrong answer here :) And it sure beats "yogurt" going bad in the fridge! I disagree. Since taking them, I've become completely regular and stress free with bowel movements.

I really don't know because I only taken them for about two weeks and I didn't feel any difference. Maybe because I haven't taken it long enough.I still have mine though. I will not be taking them since it be awhile ago.

yes. They have good flavor but aprx 15 min after taking I started vomiting violently. I thought maybe I should eat something before taking but it did not help. I threw them away!!

I wouldn't recommend traveling with them unless you can put them on ice.... I say this because when I purchase them at whole foods they put them on ice in a bag.... The good bacteria will die in the warmth and the probiotics will be useless.

they have worked well for me here in sacramento, & San Diego, ca. I don't know about anywhere beyond California=I won't travel out of the U.S.=I don't trust other countries or their bugs=I've never even left Ca. Good luck

Supposedly the Colpermin were stronger, but I found, after many months, that they did not always dissolve. I now use Pepogest and they seem to work well. Others may be ok, too. Just make sure they are enteric coated.

You shouldn't have any problems. I've used them in a portable potty when I've gone to outdoor sport events. The wipes are very convenient to have at all times. I never leave home without them.

Yes, they get a bit sandy if you don't swallow them with enough water but they're cheap and they work and they don't destroy your liver!!!!

Yes they are good for traveling. The back of the package says "Where to use" and shows a van, plane and house.

I think this should be a question for the manufacturer. It seems too much like medical advice to say whether to take a supplement without it's "sealed container." I have started taking mine every other day because I do notice a 'fishy" burp occasionally. Otherwise I like them. I would look for a smaller pill for your son, even if he has to take more than one to get the necessary amount.

they are very tiny round tablets- It says they are time released, but I would not swear to it. I have taken them at night and gotten sleepy, but also woken up and not be able to go back to sleep- of course this happens to me a lot. I also think that if you take them daily they lose their potency so I use them sparingly. They defenitely help me to fall asleep.
