I have found in the past few years with the combination of age, stress, an under active thyroid and other minor medical conditions that require a few different medications, my digestive system is just not the same. I often had a lot of gas in the evenings, problems with regularity. I would often switch between being constipated or having loose stools .Change in diet made no difference. I was quite simply, uncomfortable on a regular basis.I was starting to wonder if there was something else wrong with me, and was on the verge of a doctor visit with my concerns. As an alternative to a doctor visit, I decided to try probiotics first. I tried a few different brands with minimal success until Sustenex. I have been taking this product daily for the past two months and I am so happy with the results! I have virtually no gas, and can rely on a regular, easy bowel movement every few days. I can honestly say it has changed my life. I am in love with this product, and don't know what I will do if it is every discontinued.(Please Don't!!!). Thank you for such a fabulous product, and thank you Drugstore.com for the sale price [...], I stocked up!

Way over-hyped, irresponsibly so. I've tried Sustenex more than once because of the extravagant claims about the product and the wonder of "Geneden" (grow some of your own bacteria and make up a name for it). It exacerbates my digestive symptoms and adds some others, like extreme fatigue. I've never been able to get through a complete box.

    Comments about Schiff Digestive Advantage, Daily Probiotic, Capsules, 30 ea:

    I will admit, I initially bought this product because of the low price. Compared to other brands, which are so expensive, this was much more affordable. Plus, it has glowing reviews across many different sites. But I've been taking it for about 20 days now, and it just isn't working for me.
    First, one of the reasons I wanted to try a probiotic was to alleviate occasional gas. Instead, this caused painful gas daily. A few hours after taking it, I'd be bloated, crampy, and extremely gassy. I thought it might go away in a few days. It did lessen in severity after maybe 10 days, but not completely subside.
    Besides causing some really unfortunate gas, I haven't noticed anything positive. Nothing else seems or feels any different. I figure I'll finish the month supply and then switch to something like Culturelle. This just isn't the one for me.

      Found this product to be most effective. Ran out once and used another brand, big difference. Good thing drugstore.com ships quickly! I'll make sure that won't ever happen again. This product works best for me.

          I have been on a regimen of 3 powerful antibiotics for almost a year for a chronic lung infection. I've been taking this product the whole time. All of my health care professionals are amazed that I have had no intestinal side effects (diarrhea!)from the medications. I can't guarantee that this will work for you in a similar situation, but it's certainly worth a try!( My doctor said it was okay for me to take it.) good luck!

          I have lots of reflex which can be controlled with Sustenex Probiotic in the morning and Nexium in the afternoon. One rule is to eat early before bedtime like 2-3 hours before bedtime to let the food empty the stomach first prior to lying down for the night.

            I began taking Sustenex over a year ago after reading reviews of the active Probiotic ingredient. I am convinced that taking Sustenex daily has helped me stay healthy by boosting my immune system. I know it has helped my digestive system work efficiently!

                  the Sustenex Probiotic chews worked much better for me; I tried the capsules when the chews were out of stock--not sure if it was that they were deliv'd via USPS and sat in a hot mailbox too long and lost their effectiveness or what, but the capsules didn't work for me
