The prevalence of GERD in India range from 8% to 30% which is predominantly due to usage of spices and non-vegetarian foods. Conventional treatment includes antacids and histamine H2 receptor blockers (H2RAs), proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) which may lead to adverse events upon long term use…
BLM LrGG
Background
Diarrhoea is the 3rd most common cause of mortality in India. Diarrhoea is self-limited and goes away (resolves) without intervention. Diarrhoea is most often caused by a virus or a bacteria. Available treatment options include antibiotics but usage of the same can lead to antibiotic associated diarrhoea due to elimination of healthy gut flora by the antibiotics. Hence, usage of Probiotics to combat diarrhoea by re-establishing a healthy biome is now being accepted as a rational therapy.

Pro clausii
Background
Diarrhoea is the 3rd most common cause of mortality in India. Diarrhoea is self-limited and resolves without intervention. If your diarrhoea fails to improve and resolve completely, you can be at risk of complications (dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, kidney failure and organ damage). The most common cause of diarrhoea is either a virus that infects your bowel or a bacterial infection. Currently available treatments only provide symptomatic relief, like ORS to replenish the salts/electrolytes. Antibiotics can also be used for treatment of infection but in many cases it leads to antibiotic associated diarrhoea. Probiotics are used to re-establish a healthy biome to combat diarrhoea.
Product info & advantages
Proclausii contains bacillus clausii spore suspension which is a probiotic useful for the management of imbalance of intestinal bacterial flora due to diverse causes. It is used to effectively manage diarrhoea and to treat the alterations of the intestinal bacterial flora. It restores the equilibrium of the intestinal flora changed during diarrhoea or in the course of therapies with antibiotics or chemotherapy, contributing to correcting the consequent dysvitaminosis (the imbalance of production and assimilation of the vitamins).
Indication
- Prevention and treatment of antibiotic associated diarrhoea
- Treatment of diarrhoea in children
Benefits
- Helps in diarrhoea
- Improves digestion
- Restores normal flora
Pro-IBS
Background
The reported prevalence of Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) varies from 4.2%-7.5% in India. IBS is a bowel disorder in which chronic abdominal pain or discomfort is associated with irregularity in stool form and passage. It often leads to either constipation or diarrhoea with bloating and abdominal pain. IBS has a significant impact on the patients’ quality of life due to physical suffering, psychological co-morbidity, social disability and economic non-productivity. Current management options include fiber, anti-diarrheal and painkillers which treat individual symptoms often leading to poor quality of life.
Product info & advantages
L. plantarum LP299v is the world’s most well documented (>50 clinical studies) probiotic strain and it has clinically proven efficacy in addressing digestive issues. A lactic acid producing bacteria that binds to specific receptors in the gut and impacts the immune system, nutrient uptake, and overall microbial ecosystem. Clinical trials suggest that 78.1% of the patients scored the L. plantarum 299v symptomatic effect (particularly relief of abdominal pain and bloating) as excellent or good v/s only 8.1 % for placebo.
Benefits
- Reduction of abdominal pain
- Reduction of bloating
- Reduction of gas formation
- Normalization of stool frequency

- High patient compliance due to one capsule dosage per day
- No refrigeration required
Artipep
Background
Prevalence of dyspepsia is about 20-30% worldwide. A study from India reported prevalence of dyspepsia to be more than 30%. Usually, the liver produces enough bile to break down the dietary fat. Indigestion often occurs when the body is unable to process the dietary fat absorbed in the diet. The most used drugs to treat this problem are Proton pump inhibitors but they are associated heavily with adverse renal effects which is mainly Chronic Kidney disease. In fact as per recent data, PPI users have 83% increased risk for a 10 unit decline in GFR (Glomerular filtration rate).
Product info & advantages
Artipep contains Artichoke leaf extract which increases bile juice production rapidly so the dietary fats can be processed better, this effectively eliminates indigestion. It relieves digestive problems quickly and reliably. Artipep also has an antispasmodic effect which will further add to the beneficial effects for better digestion. Clinical trials suggest that use of Artichoke not only provides symptomatic relief but also improves quality of life in patients with functional dyspepsia.
Indication
- Prevention and treatment of functional dyspepsia
- Indigestion
Benefits
- Maintains digestive health by boosting friendly gut bacteria and alleviating symptoms of indigestion
- Activates the body’s digestive system in just 30 minutes
- Has a liver-protecting & anti spasmodic effect
- Supports the breakdown of cholesterol and can thus have a positive effect on blood lipid levels
Key features
- Vegetarian capsules
- Evidence backed
- No relevant side effects
Lactoflux
Background
The prevalence of GERD in India ranges from 8% to 30% which is predominantly due to the usage of spices and non-vegetarian food. Conventional treatment includes antacids and histamine H2 receptor blockers (H2RAs), Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs) which may lead to adverse events upon long term use. Hence the need for alternative medicines.
The presence of H Pylori is implicated in peptic ulcers, gastritis and stomach cancers. The prevalence of H pylori infections is 39% in India. Current management includes triple therapy- the efficacy of which has fallen below 70%. A research showed that despite prescribed treatments for gastric discomfort, recurrence is common. 70% of patients experienced recurrent stomach ulcer, 42% still suffer from heartburn and 20% with H. pylori infection are not completely treated even with antibiotics.
Product info & advantages
Lactoflux is a novel & patented strain of lactic acid bacterium L. johnsonii 1088. It addresses the root cause of peptic ulcer and acid reflux. L. johnsonii 1088 has the unique ability to synergistically eradicate H. pylori and suppress overactive gastric acid secretion to prevent GERD symptoms from arising after the elimination of H. pylori from the body.
Indication
- GERD

Benefits
- Relieves recurrent stomach discomfort at root cause
- Soothes burning sensation in the chest
- Manages gastric acid backflow
