What is the recommended dosage for Saccharomyces boulardii?

Acute: 250 mg 2x/day; General: 250-500 mg/day (5-10 billion CFU)

What are the side effects of Saccharomyces boulardii?

Potential side effects include: Mild bloating and gas, Rare: fungemia in severely immunocompromised or ICU patients with central lines, Constipation (rare).

What is Saccharomyces boulardii and how does it support immune health?

Saccharomyces boulardii is a probiotic yeast with extensive clinical evidence for gastrointestinal and immune support. It may help maintain gut barrier integrity, stimulate secretory IgA production, and modulate inflammatory responses in the intestinal mucosa.

What dosage of Saccharomyces boulardii has been used in studies?

Clinical trials have used S. boulardii at doses of 250–1,000 mg per day (equivalent to 5–10 billion CFU), typically for 1 to 4 weeks. It is one of the most extensively studied probiotic organisms for antibiotic-associated and infectious diarrhea.

What are the potential side effects of Saccharomyces boulardii?

S. boulardii is generally well tolerated. Mild flatulence may occur. It should be avoided in critically ill patients with central venous catheters due to a small risk of fungemia. Unlike bacterial probiotics, it is not affected by antibiotics.

About

Saccharomyces boulardii es una levadura no patógena que apoya la función inmune de la barrera intestinal, estimula la producción de IgA secretora y modula la respuesta inflamatoria. Su resistencia natural a los antibióticos permite su uso simultáneo durante tratamientos antibióticos. Metaanálisis respaldan su eficacia en la diarrea asociada a antibióticos y en la prevención de infecciones por C. difficile.

How It Works

Non-pathogenic yeast that supports intestinal immune barrier function; enhances secretory IgA production; uniquely antibiotic-resistant; neutralizes bacterial toxins and supports commensal flora recovery.
