Qiara Infant Drops - a natural probiotic originating from breastmilk

Qiara Infant Drops

Welcome new Qiara Infant Drops into your family’s routine!

Our probiotic drops originate from good bacteria found in breastmilk, the rock-solid foundation for gut and immune system from the very start.

Perfect for little ones from newborns to active toddlers up to 24 months, Qiara supports their exploration and growth. Whether they’re encountering the usual baby challenges or need a gentle boost while on antibiotics, Qiara Infant Drops make daily dosing straightforward and effective.

Welcome to a lifelong journey of health and wellbeing with Qiara.

Keeping it natural

We believe that natural is always best, so our probiotic drops only contain probiotic, sunflower oil and vitamin E.

It’s natural combination means that you may observe the following:

  • Some probiotic settling at the bottom of the bottle
  • Some particles may lodge in the dropper
  • If the bottle has been lying down, you may also notice what appears to be a residue at the neck of the bottle.

It is important that you always shake the bottle well for 10 seconds before each use to ensure the oil and probiotic mix well before dosing.

What makes Qiara probiotics different?

Probiotics originally isolated from breastmilk

Lactobacillus fermentum CECT5716 is a probiotic isolated from breastmilk.

  • Breastmilk has a history of safe prolonged intake by newborns and infants;
  • is uniquely adapted to reside both in the human digestive tract and in human breastmilk and to interact with the human baby.

Breastmilk plays a critical role in establishing a healthy microbiome in infant.

Single strain and supported by evidence

It is important to select the right probiotic strain researched for and suited to the needs of you and your family.

Many probiotic companies provide broad spectrum probiotics containing multiple strains in a single dose. However, clinical trials for probiotics are usually conducted with a single strain, and it is unclear how multiple strains in a single dose may interact with or inhibit each other.

Containing a single strain probiotic, Lactobacillus fermentum CECT5716, Qiara Infant is an evidence-based strain isolated from breastmilk, and its use and expected outcomes are supported by clinical trials.
