Here you will find our FAQ's, if you need further assistance please contact us using the form belowA synbiotic is a product that combines probiotics (live beneficial bacteria) and prebiotics (food for the bacteria) in a single preparation. Our synbiotic formulates both pre&probiotics into a single serve daily shot
Probiotics - beneficial bacteria in your gut
Prebiotics - feed the beneficial bacteria in your gut
Prebiotics & Probiotics work together in harmony to create trillions of good gut bacteria to create a balanced and diverse microbiome
Our blend contains 3 potent bacterial strains including the most well-researched and proven common probiotic strains - Bifidobacterium longum, Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus and Lactiplantibacillus plantarum, check the Ingredients page see the benefits of our active ingredients!
When your gut isn’t busy digesting food, the bacteria colonise easily, and prebiotic fibers in synbiotic shots can be fermented more efficiently by existing gut microbes
We recommend by starting with 12 weeks of consistency to form, colonise and feel your gut thriving, then you can decide if taking probiotics long term is for you. Think of it like tending a garden — if you stop feeding the “good” bacteria, their numbers drop over time
Many people choose to take probiotics during and after a course of antibiotics, as antibiotics can reduce both beneficial and non-beneficial bacteria in the gut.
If you choose to take this product while on antibiotics, it’s generally recommended to separate the timing by at least 2–3 hours, as antibiotics may reduce the activity of probiotic bacteria.
Everyone’s gut is different, so the time it takes to notice changes can vary. Some people notice digestive comfort or changes in regularity within a few days to a couple of weeks, while for others it may take several weeks of consistent daily use
Missing a day is not a problem. Simply resume your normal routine the next day — there’s no need to double up.
Prebiotics and probiotics work best when taken consistently over time, so regular daily use is recommended to support gut health. An occasional missed day won’t undo your progress.
This product has been formulated for adults. While prebiotics and probiotics are commonly found in foods, this product has not been specifically tested or formulated for children.
We recommend that children only take supplements under the guidance of a healthcare professional.
This product is generally well tolerated. However, if you have a sensitive stomach, it’s normal to experience mild digestive changes such as bloating or gas when introducing prebiotics and probiotics, particularly in the first few days.
These effects usually settle as your body adjusts. If you have a very sensitive digestive system, you may prefer to start slowly or consult a healthcare professional before use.
YES! We encourage you to travel with your daily shot. Remember, once opened keep refrigerated
INGREDIENTS
Yes, third-party tested for CFU amount at the batch expiry to make sure each formulation is effective for its lifespan. We only sell FOCUSYM before its expiry to adhere to our quality control practices
We focus on the three main pillars that gut health impacts—digestion, immunity, and mood. Our probiotic strains are directly correlated with each of these areas, keeping them at the forefront of our formulation. We’ve also included prebiotic fibre to feed these beneficial bacteria, helping them thrive and effectively colonise the gut flora. To round it out, we added active ingredients that help reduce inflammatory responses in the gut and support your overall balance. Altogether, these ingredients make Focusym the right choice for comprehensive gut support
We’re proud to be the first synbiotic daily shot on the market here in Australia. Our founder has spent significant time researching and trialling probiotics, and with the growing evidence behind synbiotics, decided it was time to formulate Focusym. After being thoroughly tried and tested, this synbiotic approach has proven to be effective and supportive of a healthy, balanced diet—something we encourage everyone to prioritise.
Focusym isn’t just another probiotic—it’s a synbiotic daily shot, which means it delivers probiotics and the prebiotic fuel they need in one go in a water based solution which live bacteria survive in. Unlike capsules and powders, which can lose potency during digestion, our liquid format helps the live strains survive the journey to the gut and get to work faster. The built-in prebiotics actively feed the bacteria as they arrive, helping them colonise more effectively than probiotics taken alone. Plus, our added active ingredients support inflammation, balance, and overall gut function—something most basic probiotic supplements don’t address.
