There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I am now confident it taking these. but you do need to keep them in the fridge when you get them, and if you are taking antibiotics now, wait for three hours before taking the probiotic so that the anitbiotic does not kill the it. Also, after your antibiotics are over you may want to continue taking these for 3-6 months. In addition you may want to order Liv-gen, to cleanse your liver since antibiotics hit your liver very hard. Liv-gen 10 drops in mouth morning and 10 in eve 20 mins away from food. Take until bottle is empty.
"Probiotic supplements, such as HMF Forte, last for up to six months without refrigeration and are travel-safe. However, if you want to keep them fresh for longer periods of time, keeping them in the refrigerator or freezer is advised. This bottle offers a 30-day supply of HMF Forte at the recommended dosage."

Reviewed in the United States on August 3, 2023
The seller delivers quickly and there is an ice pack [though this time it was a little warmer than I normally like it to be] to keep it cold; I have never been unhappy with the service they provide in a timely manner.
