bigmighty Posted September 12, 2013 Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 Hi. DS has been taking Florastor w/o difficulties, but it is expensive. Anyone know of a good brand of Sacc B that's less expensive and possibly a link to the seller? Many thanks. - Suzanne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MomWithOCDSon Posted September 12, 2013 Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 We've been using the Jarrow brand (get it from the Vitamin Shoppe) for years now. Very affordable, and it works! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nicklemama Posted September 12, 2013 Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 I switched to Jarrow brand. You can get a huge bottle. I think I got mine on Amazon. Used Florastor for a few years but then I started taking it and it was just too expensive for two to keep taking Florastor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigmighty Posted September 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 Thanks, all. All of the other brands indicate that they include Mannan Oligo Saccharides, as well. So they are not identical to Florastor, right? Just similar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ditto. And, it doesn't have lactose like Florastor does. Edited September 12, 2013 by tpotter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the Jarrow claims 5 billion sach b units, and that's what appears to be in the capsule; the only additive in this brand appears to be something called "bio-mos," the benefits of which are explained on this web site link: http://www.vitaminshoppe.com/store/en/browse/sku_detail.jsp?id=JF-1049#.UjIrdtUo7aE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
