I've been taking Florastor to prevent C-diff for about 40 days now.

No issues with it except price.

Drugstore.com has 50 pills for $29.97, but Jarrow's on Amazon is 90 pills for I believe under $15.

Jarrow's gets good reviews, but I am hesitant on switching though I'd like to save some money.

These supplements/herbs/vitamins are breaking me.

Any feedback on those who have switched from Florastor to something else and are happy/not happy I'd appreciate hearing about.

Thanks:)

I didn't notice a difference, but it may be different for everyone. There is a slight difference between the products, though I can't recall all the details now. The Florastor is supposed to be shelf stable while the Jarrow needs to be kept cold. Worht trying especially in this weather since you don't have to worry about the temprature regulation.

I bought the Jarrows w/the plus MOS brand and so far it has been just as good as what I bought from my LLMD, but at more than half the price.

I believe the Jarrows needs to be refrigerated after opening.

I would say give it a try. I know what you mean about the money factor. I feel it here as well!
