Visbiome Vet's Advanced GI Care Capsules pack eight strains — Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus paracasei, Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus, Streptococcus thermophilus, Bifidobacterium longum, Bifidobacterium breve, and Bifidobacterium infantis, each listed with its DSM/SD strain code — at "112.5 Billion CFU per capsule." Unlike every other product in this comparison, the label explicitly states this count is "guaranteed through the 'Best if used by' date," the same program used for the companion Visbiome Vet packets. No prebiotic ingredient is listed here. Storage is strict: 36-46°F (2-8°C), not frozen, with room-temperature stability acceptable for up to one week — this is a refrigerated product, not a shelf-stable one.
Label claims include help "reducing occasional loose stools due to environmental stress or dietary changes," support for "the protective layers of the bowel" and "proper gut flora," and help "maintain normal kidney function." No Amazon listing was found for this item. It's sold as two 40-capsule bottles totaling 80 capsules, dosed by weight (1-2 capsules under 20 lbs, 2-3 for 20-60 lbs, 4 for dogs and cats over 60 lbs). The high per-capsule CFU count and refrigeration requirement point to a product meant for ongoing use under veterinary guidance rather than a casual over-the-counter pick.
Transcribed from the guaranteed analysis. "Species only" means this label prints no numbered strain, so study results for a named strain don't transfer.
Under 20 lbs: 1-2 capsules daily. 20-60 lbs: 2-3 capsules daily. Over 60 lbs: 4 capsules daily. Sold as two 40-capsule bottles (80 total).
Yes — the label states the 112.5 billion CFU per capsule figure is "guaranteed through the 'Best if used by' date," per the fact-pack.
Yes, store at 36-46°F and don't freeze it; the label does allow up to one week at room temperature without losing potency.
Both — the dosing table covers both species by weight.
Both share the same eight strains and the same "guaranteed through expiry" CFU program, per each product's own label; the packets are a powder dosed by sachet while this is a capsule.
The fact-pack lists no Amazon listing for this product.
