It is the only HSA-approved lactobacillus preparation for the symptomatic treatment of acute viral and bacterial diarrhoea, with a dual mechanism of direct bacteriostatic action and non-specific mucosal immunostimulation via IgA synthesis.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLacteol Fort Sachets 100s is a pharmaceutical-grade probiotic preparation indicated for the symptomatic treatment of occasional and acute diarrhoea in adults, children, and infants. Each sachet contains the lyophilised metabolic products of Lactobacillus LB — specifically Lactobacillus delbrueckii and Lactobacillus fermentum — at a concentration of 10 billion killed microbial bodies combined with 160 mg of neutralised lyophilised culture medium. This unique formulation delivers therapeutic benefit through the bacterial metabolites rather than live organisms, providing stability advantages over conventional live-culture probiotics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDistributed in Singapore by AMSCO Healthcare Pte Ltd (Hyphen Group), Lacteol Fort holds Health Sciences Authority (HSA) Singapore registration as an approved pharmaceutical product for diarrhoea treatment.

This provides two advantages: the product does not require refrigeration (stable at room temperature below 25°C), and its efficacy is not dependent on bacterial colonisation of the gut. The therapeutic effect derives from the bacterial metabolites which exert direct bacteriostatic action and stimulate mucosal IgA production, as demonstrated in published pharmacological studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is Lacteol Fort registered as a pharmaceutical product in Singapore?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes. Lacteol Fort is registered with the Health Sciences Authority (HSA) of Singapore as a pharmaceutical product, not merely as a food supplement. It is the only HSA-approved lactobacillus preparation for the treatment of diarrhoea. This regulatory classification reflects the clinical evidence supporting its therapeutic efficacy and the pharmaceutical-grade manufacturing standards under EU GMP regulations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: What is the recommended dosage for adults and children?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: At the first sign of diarrhoea, adults should take 2 sachets immediately, followed by 1 sachet twice daily until symptoms resolve. Children should take 1–2 sachets immediately, followed by 1 sachet twice daily. Infants should take 1 sachet twice daily. The sachet contents should be dissolved in a small amount of liquid (water or milk) and administered orally. Treatment duration is typically 3–5 days for acute episodes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Can Lacteol Fort be taken during antibiotic therapy?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes. Because Lacteol Fort contains heat-killed organisms rather than live bacteria, it is not affected by concurrent antibiotic administration. This is a clinical advantage over live-culture probiotics, which may be partially inactivated by co-administered antibiotics. The World Gastroenterology Organisation (WGO) guidelines on probiotics note that heat-killed preparations maintain their biological activity regardless of antibiotic co-administration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is Lacteol Fort suitable for patients with lactose intolerance?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Lacteol Fort contains lactose monohydrate as an excipient. Patients with confirmed galactose intolerance, congenital Lapp lactase deficiency, or glucose-galactose malabsorption should not use this product. Patients with mild lactose intolerance should consult their healthcare practitioner, as the lactose content per sachet is relatively small. The product does not contain gluten.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e\n{\n  \"@context\": \"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n  \"@type\": \"FAQPage\",\n  \"mainEntity\": [\n    {\n      \"@type\": \"Question\",\n      \"name\": \"What are the benefits of Lacteol Fort Sachets 100s – Probiotic Support for Digestive Health for digestive health?\",\n      \"acceptedAnswer\": {\n        \"@type\": \"Answer\",\n        \"text\": \"Lacteol Fort Sachets 100s – Probiotic Support for Digestive Health by AMSCO-Hyphen promotes gut microbiome diversity, supports digestive comfort, and strengthens the gut-immune axis.
