"Little Remedies® Probiotic Plus Electrolytes is the first complete solution for parents to help support their baby's digestive health and hydration with a probiotic and electrolytes in one convenient packet," said Barry Cohen, Director of Innovation at Prestige Brands, Inc. "Probiotic Plus Electrolytes is the newest innovation in pediatric care and like all of Little Remedies'® baby focused products, was created with ingredients that are safe and reliable especially for a baby's gentle body."

Little Remedies® Probiotic Plus Electrolytes is the only option on the market that has the proprietary dual chamber pouch technology which enables a specially formulated electrolyte that complies with the World Health Organization guidelines to be combined with a probiotic. This is important because electrolytes, when stored with probiotics, will interact with the probiotics and impede the probiotic's ability to survive during shelf life, making them useless.

Little Remedies® Probiotic Plus Electrolytes is an episodic product designed to be used when needed for children ages 12 months and older. It comes in a natural berry flavor and contains Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG, the most studied probiotic strain in children, containing 5 billion colony forming units. The product is available in stores now at Target, BabiesRUs and Amazon.com, and retails for $11.99-$15.99.
