Due to anatomical and hormonal differences, women are six times more likely than men to suffer from irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).1 Many patients with IBS find that their symptoms can be alleviated with the addition of fiber supplements to their healthy diet. Be sure to stock an assortment of fiber supplements to meet their needs.
Diarrhea is a common side effect in 10% to 30% of people taking antibiotics.2 Recent studies of both children and adults have shown that probiotics taken before and during antibiotic use can lower the risk of antibiotic-associated diarrhea. Saccharomyces boulardii and Lactobacillus GG seem to be the most effective,2 so recommend these probiotics when dispensing antibiotics to increase sales.
