Sorry penguin I had a similar experience in 2014 when my insurance abrutly dropped VSL #3 DS withe the new health care laws. It was a miracle drug for me.

Visibiome is the new vsl3

For those using VSL #3 or now Visbiome, how much are you using. The ND recommending only a 1/4 sachet a day for my son, but I wonder if it should be more. I see that the company recommends a sachet a day. What are your experiences and thoughts?

Ds was started on 2 packets a day of the 900 billon packets for 30 days to build up his gut then switched over to 1 full packet a day every day .

Insurance would not cover vsl#3
But picked up the visobiome prescription strength today (900 billon )
And insurance covered it all
:dance:

That's great! Don't know if insurance will cover in Canada. It wasn't prescribed by a medical doctor. I should look into this. Glad it is back on the market though.

The lower dose versions capsule and regular packets (450 billon)
Are over the counter here and don’t need a doctor to prescribe them
The extra potency version (900 billion ) needs a doctors prescription

My Little Penguin - I have been purchasing the regular dose at my own expense but wonder if it is possible to ask my family doctor about a prescription..... I will first see if my extended insurance covers it though.

Thank you :dusty:
